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.

Abstract 1. 1. Removal of tumors of the carotid body is difficult and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. 2. 2. The carotid artery should not be sacrificed unless its ligation is necessitated by uncontrollable hemorrhage. 3. 3. If patience and care are used, most carotid body tumors can be removed without damaging the carotid

DE CASTRO'S histological1 and Heyman's physiological2 investigations on the carotid body have provided new and important evidence of a peripheral control of respiration and circulation. Histologically, much work has been done to elucidate the mode of nervous innervation of the chemo-receptive tissue in the carotid body; but little is known of the ...

In previous work, we found that ascorbic acid (AA) or ascorbate is present in the carotid body of the cat (Pokorski and Gonet, 1997), the animal that, as opposed to man and other primates, is capable of synthesizing ascorbate (Chatterjee, 1973). The content of ascorbate is decreased in the hypoxic carotid body, which implies the compound might be ...

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2002
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.

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.

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1975
The anatomy, physiology, embryology, and pathology of the carotid body are reviewed, stressing the capability of the normal and neoplastic structure to produce pressor amines. Nine new cases of carotid body tumors are reported including a patient with a malignant tumor with a facial nerve paralysis and regional node metastases.

AbstractA retrospective study of 20 patients treated at the Tata Memorial Hospital over a period of 50 years, 1941–1991, is presented. Seventy‐five percent (15/20) of the patients presented before their fifth decade with a male‐to‐female ratio of 2:1. The commonest presenting symptom was a painless lump in the neck.

Abstract Angiographic findings in carotid body tumors are characteristic. The carotid arteries are usually widened and displaced at their bifurcation. The arterial phase shows numerous abnormal small and large vessels at the tumor site; a later phase demonstrates tumor stain and numerous abnormal veins around the tumor.

Neurobiology of the carotid body
2022The carotid body (CB) is a bilateral arterial chemoreceptor located in the carotid artery bifurcation with an essential role in cardiorespiratory homeostasis. It is composed of highly perfused cell clusters, or glomeruli, innervated by sensory fibers. Glomus cells, the most abundant in each glomerulus, are neuron-like multimodal sensory elements able ...
