Surgical Clinics of North America, 1963
Abstract 1. 1. Carotid body tumors may invade, may metastasize, and may cause symptoms by increase in size. 2. 2. They should probably be left alone in the older patient. Surgical excision is the procedure of choice in the younger patient. 3. 3. Normal blood pressure must be maintained if the carotid artery is ligated.

Abstract A brief review of carotid body tumors is given and experience with forty tumors in thirty-eight consecutive patients who were operatively explored is presented. All but one case were totally resectable. There were no serious complications and neither internal or common carotid artery ligation was required in any case.

A 17 year old girl presented with a progressively increasing swelling in her neck since 9 months. On examination a2*3 cm, firm, pulsatile swelling was felt in the left anterior triangle. The CT scan of the mass was suggestive of a carotid body tumor and urinary cathecholamines were negative. The mass was excised completely.

Between 1973 and 1984, five patients underwent excision of a carotid body tumor without operative mortality, cranial nerve palsy, cerebrovascular accident, or recurrence when followed to the present or to death from unassociated causes. The importance of preoperative four-vessel extracranial cerebrovascular arteriography for both diagnosis and planning

A case of carotid body tumour (paraganglioma) which is both unusual and highly vascular, arising from the carotid body is reported. The patient was a 68-year-old female with a right submandibular swelling. The initial pathological diagnosis was obtained from the incisional biopsy.

Carotid body paragangliomas were diagnosed by Doppler ultrasound, carotid artery angiography, and cranial computed tomography in a 35-year-old man with a mass in the neck and hearing loss, and in a 42-year-old man with headache, syncope, and a mass in the neck. They underwent successful surgical excision.

Carotid body tumours are a rare class of paraganglionoma arising from the upper neck, but should be considered in the differential diagnosis of neck lumps. A wrong diagnosis of cervical lymphadenopathy followed by excision biopsy may have serious consequences. The only way to minimize such risk is to be aware of their existence.

Twenty‐one patients with 22 carotid body tumours have been managed between 1963 and 1982. All presented with a neck mass and, if the tumour was extensive, pain. The diagnosis was made clinically, by ultrasound (2) and by angiography (16) and confirmed by biopsy in 19 patients. Eighteen resections were performed, without mortality but with a stroke rate

Carotid body tumours are rare, but important. Their reputation for slow growth and virtual non-malignancy has had, in the light of experience, to be revised. Sudden spurts of growth are well known, and the tumour may become irremovable in a relatively short time. Aggressive local invasion and widespread metastasis are now well recognized.
