Carotid body paraganglioma [PDF]
Clinical Case Reports, 2019 Carotid body paraganglioma is commonly asymptomatic, slow‐growing, and nonfunctioning. With its relative contraindication to biopsy due to its high vascularity in nature, imaging characteristics are the key to help making the diagnosis.

STUDIES OF CAROTID BODY AND CAROTID SINUS: FINE STRUCTURE OF CAROTID BODY
Nihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1966 古くから頚動脈洞反射にかんする研究は多く, 総頚動脈分岐部には, 圧受容体と化学受容体の存在することは多くの生理学者が認めるものである. これらにかんして, イヌを用いて, 頚動脈洞を刺激し, その血中カテコールアミン体の変動を認め, さらに, 動脈血中の化学成分の変化によつて起こる呼吸反射をみとめ, 先人の業績を確認しながら, 組織像を追究した. ことに, 電顕像および組織化学的方法によつても, 頚動脈体は, 腺でも単なる血管糸球でもなく, 傍神経節でもなく, クローム親和性細胞も認められず, いわゆる頚動脈体と呼称されるのにふさわしい臓器であることを認め, さらに, 頚動脈洞壁の微細構造と比較検討し, 本小体が化学受容体とされて当然のことと結語した.

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1965 THE CAROTID-body tumor is an uncommon neoplasm with less than 500 cases reported in literature. Many and varied names have been used to designate these tumors and in the past they were frequently classified as endotheliomas, angiomas, angiosarcomas, hamartomas, carcinomas, and reticulum-cell sarcomas.
