Core Tip |
Preoperative diagnosis of glomus tumor of the stomach is difficult as its exhibits a similar clinical appearance on conventional images (computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, endoscopic ultrasonography) to other submucosal tumors of the stomach. Furthermore, pathological evidence for diagnosis is difficult to obtain by conventional endoscopic biopsy. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNA) is an essential and useful diagnostic tool for glomus tumor of the stomach to obtain pathological evidence including immunohistochemical staining which is critically important to diagnose pathologically. There are only eight literatures of gastric glomus tumors which were diagnosed by FNA. This is a first report to review these literatures. |
