The Function of the Carotid Body
New England Journal of Medicine, 1971Carotid-body resection, or glomectomy, was introduced as a form of treatment of bronchial asthma in Japan during World War II. After the method received some acceptance in this country, several well controlled studies showed it to be ineffective, and it was the opinion of the Committee on Therapy of the American Thoracic Society in 1968 that the ...

A 63-year old female was referred to our hospital because she had a mass on the right side of the neck. The swelling had slowly progressed in a couple of months. Besides problems with swallowing there were no other complaints. Her previous medical history was unremarkable and she could not remember any family members with similar lesions.

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

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 ...

Histology of the Carotid Body [PDF]
Nature, 1951 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 ...

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.

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.

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.

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.
