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.

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.

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.

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

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

The surgical management of carotid body tumors requires identification and preservation of neural and vascular structures without compromising resection of the neoplasm. Fifteen patients were examined and treated for carotid body tumors at the Cleveland (Ohio) Clinic Foundation from 1979 through 1987.

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.

To better define the management and behavior of carotid body tumors, a 34-year surgical experience with 33 tumors in 30 patients was reviewed. There were 20 women and 10 men with an age range of 20 to 78 years. All but one presented with a neck mass. Arteriography was performed on 21 patients and was diagnostic in every case.
