Carotid body tumor imaging: MRI, ultrasound, and elastography with surgical management.
Radiol Case Rep
December 2024
Department of Radiodiagnosis, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Sawangi, Wardha, Maharashtra 442001, India.
Article Synopsis
- A carotid body tumor, or paraganglioma, is a rare tumor that usually occurs in the neck and is mostly benign, accounting for only 0.5% of all tumors.
- A case study of a 22-year-old male revealed symptoms like swelling in the neck, hoarseness, and difficulty swallowing, leading to a diagnosis confirmed by ultrasound and MRI.
- The primary treatment for carotid body tumors is surgical removal, and the patient's surgery was guided by the Shamblin classification to assess the tumor's resectability and reduce vascular complications.
Schwannoma of Ansa-Cervicalis: A Rare Location for Schwannoma.
Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg
October 2024
Department of Surgery, Al-Zahra hospital Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Article Synopsis
- Schwannomas are uncommon tumors that develop from the nervous system, and this case discusses a rare schwannoma found in the ansa-cervicalis of a 44-year-old man, initially mistaken for a glomus caroticum tumor based on MRI findings.
- During surgery, the tumor was located at the carotid bifurcation and confirmed to be a schwannoma through histopathological evaluation, highlighting the difficulty of preoperative diagnosis given the potential for misidentification with other neck masses.
- The presence of Verocay bodies in the histology indicates the tumor type, and any neurological deficits post-surgery will depend on which nerve the tumor originated from and how carefully the surgery was performed.
