RESUMO
Multiple glomuvenous malformations (GVMs), also known as glomangiomas, are uncommon entities with histological features of both glomus cells proliferation and venous malformation. A 14-year-old boy was admitted to our clinic with multiple dermal blue nodules, disseminated in different segments of the body. The patient's family history was positive for similar lesions; his mother and maternal grandmother had some asymptomatic blue nodules on their body. Histological examination showed a tumor composed of multiple caveronous vessels surrounded by glomus cells, positive for alpha smooth muscle actin, HHF35 (pan-actin), and h-caldesmon. This is a case of multiple GVMs, a rare disease caused by mutations in glomulin gene, with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. The clinical and histopathological features are briefly discussed.
