Management of an Endobronchial Pulmonary Paraganglioma via Bronchoscopic Resection
We present the case of 48‐year‐old female with a right main bronchus endobronchial lesion identified on positron emission tomography (PET) dotatate scan on a background of succinic dehydrogenase B gene mutation (SDHB) familial paraganglioma. Bronchoscopic management with argon plasma coagulation (APC) probe ablation was used to debulk the lesion which ...
