Abstract

Glomus tumor is a distinctive type of perivascular tumor whose cell type is a modified smooth cell that closely resembles the glomus body, and this is where the tumor's name is derived. This kind of neoplasm is a benign and rather uncommon neoplasm that can be found in any part of the body, yet it is most commonly seen in the subungual area. Glomus tumor of the trachea is extremely rare. We present the clinicopathologic findings of a resected glomus tumor of the trachea along with a review of the related literature.
