Case presentation
A year old woman has an exquisitely painful area on her heel. The are has become so painful she must walk on her toes. It is extremely sensitive to cold, as well as any pressure.
Radiological findings:
There is a small mass in the subcutaneous tissues of the heel, generally isointense on T1 and moderately bright on T2. There is a plantar mass, which is approximately 2 x 2 x 1 cm, nearly subcutaneous in the plantar surface of the left foot, just at the border where the subcutaneous tissue meets the plantar fat pad.
Special Features of this Case:
When a subcutaneous mass causes very severe local pain and cold sensitivity, this diagnosis should be considered. See the page on glomus tumor on this site.
