Radiosurgery for Glomus Jugulare Tumors
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2009Glomus jugulare tumors arise from adventitial chemoreceptor tissue in the jugular bulb. Although histologically benign, these tumors can be locally aggressive because of their proximity to the lower cranial nerves and major vascular structures. Traditional treatment involves microsurgical removal with or without endovascular embolization, but morbidity

The management of glomus jugulare tumours
Clinical Otolaryngology, 1987The treatment details of 58 patients treated for glomus jugulare tumours in Newcastle upon Tyne are examined in the light of other studies reported in the literature. For the group of 55 patients treated by radiotherapy, the 20 year survival is 94% (determined actuarially). The 20 year disease-free survival (determined actuarially) is 77%.

Aims and Background Although mostly benign and slow-growing, glomus jugulare tumors have a high propensity for local invasion of adjacent vascular structures, lower cranial nerves and the inner ear, which may result in substantial morbidity and even ...

Long-term outcomes after radiosurgery for glomus jugulare tumors
Aims and background: The treatment of glomus jugulare tumors (GJT) remains controversial due to high morbidity. Historically, these tumors have primarily been managed surgically.

A 53-year-old woman with left vocal cord paralysis was seen for sharp shooting pains in the left side of the neck and the left shoulder and upper arm. Glomus jugulare tumor was diagnosed, based on clinical findings and results of angiography and computed tomography. Because surgery was contraindicated, radiotherapy was used.

Linac-based stereotactic body radiation therapy for treatment of glomus jugulare tumors
BACKGROUND: Glomus jugulare tumors are rare, typically benign, tumors that arise from the neural crest cells that are associated with the autonomic ganglia in and around the jugular bulb.

ABSTRACT To the Editor:— I agree with the comments by Dr. Raymond Schiffman. The term "glomus jugulare tumor" (or nonchromaffin paraganglioma of glomus jugulare; or chemodectoma of glomus jugulare) obviously cannot apply to histologically similar tumors which do not arise from the normal structure which bears that name.

Chemodectomas of the glomus jugulare
Cancer, 1972Chemodectomas of the glomus jugulare are best controlled by a combined approach where radical mastoidectomy is followed by 4500 rads external megavoltage irradiation. Postoperative radiotherapy both delays recurrences (by an average of 10 years) and reduces the frequency of recurrences.
