摘要
Glomus tumours occur in many sites. We report the first case of a glomangiomyoma in the pancreas of a 17-year-old girl. The tumour was 5 cm in diameter and consisted of rounded glomus cells, blood vessels and spindled smooth muscle cells. The glomus and smooth muscle tumour cells showed moderate diffuse cytoplasmic staining with vimentin, muscle-specific actin and smooth muscle actin. There was weak focal positivity for desmin in the spindle cell component only. The patient is alive and well with no evidence of recurrence 24 months after surgery.
