Endobronchial glomus tumor. | LitMetric

Endobronchial glomus tumor.

J Bronchology Interv Pulmonol

Department of Respiratory, Hospital Queen Elizabeth Hospital 1, Ministry of Health, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia.

Published: January 2015

We report a case of a 52-year-old patient who had undergone a bladder resection and an ileal conduit for a transitional cell carcinoma. He then presented with a short history of hemoptysis 3 months later. Rigid bronchoscopy was performed revealing an endobronchial lesion, which was removed via laser and debulking method without complications. Histopathologic examination confirmed it to be a benign endobronchial glomus tumor. On the basis of our literature search, this is the 34th reported case of glomus tumor arising from the respiratory tract, seventh reported case of an endobronchial glomus tumor treated bronchoscopically, and the first possibly coincidental finding in relation to a patient with primary transitional bladder cell carcinoma.

Glomus tumors are benign vascular soft tissue neoplasms of glomus bodies. Primary lung glomus tumors are rare and usually express smooth muscle markers, and are negative for cytokeratin and neuroendocrine markers in immunohistochemistry. We report a case of a primary lung glomus tumor showing diffuse, strong, aberrant immunoexpression for synaptophysin and morphologically mimicking a low-grade neuroendocrine tumor (carcinoid tumor).

January 2025

Department of Dermatology, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, USA.

Onychopapilloma is a benign tumor of the nail bed and distal matrix, commonly presenting with longitudinal erythronychia and distal subungual hyperkeratosis. A 30-year-old Asian male presented with an asymptomatic, stable discoloration of the thumbnail, with longitudinal erythronychia, distal onycholysis, and V-shaped fissuring. Dermoscopy revealed splinter hemorrhages and focal distal subungual hyperkeratosis beneath the V-shaped notch.

A 57-year-old woman had an incidental finding of a hypervascular small bowel lesion on a contrast-enhanced CT scan performed for a suspected renal graft infection. The morphologic features of the lesion were suggestive of a neuroendocrine tumor (NET), but serum chromogranin A and urinary 5-HIAA were negative. 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT showed high SSTR-2 expression in the lesion, suggesting a NET.
