Abstract

An adult male presented to us with a recurrent, large bleeding tumour in the neck. We describe our approach to the patient, whose tumour was labelled as an atypical glomus on final histopathology. They are relatively uncommon in the head neck, and this case report with literature review is expected to add to our knowledge.
