Abstract

The glomus coccygeum is a glomus body located close to the tip of the coccyx. Because of its large size and multiple anastomotic channels, it mimics glomus tumor. It is very unfamiliar to the pathologits. We describe a case of glomus coccygeum incidentally found associated with coccygeal dimple from 5-month-old infant.
