Here, a 48-year-old male with sacral S1/S2 radiculopathy was found to have a rare glomangioma/glomus tumor of the sacral region.

Glomus tumour is a painful small tumour of the glomus body commonly located under the nail bed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation of clinical diagnosis with MRI findings, determine the prevalence of the tumour at different subungual locations and determine the differences in outcomes (if any) between a longitudinal and a transverse nail bed incision for excision of the tumour. This retrospective study of 56 subungual glomus tumour was conducted from May 2010 to December 2021.
