摘要
Glomus tumors are uncommon benign perivascular neoplasms that have rarely been described outside of their usual peripheral Soft tissue sites. We report a unique case of glomus tumor of the renal pelvis in a 53-year-old woman who presented with microscopic hematuria associated with obstruction of the Ureteropelvic junction and marked hydronephrosis. At initial gross examination, the tumor mimicked a urothelial carcinoma. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
