We report a rare case of subungual glomus tumour in the fingertip. Thorough history, physical examination and magnetic resonance imaging findings helped diagnose the existence of a mass at the subungual area of the digit. The patient was treated with excision biopsy and the histopathological result showed glomus tumour.
