“…Meanwhile, a lesser or a greater degree of carotid artery infiltration is appreciated. This issue may determine the type of surgery, from a less agressive subadventitial dissection to a more invasive surgery requiring reconstruction with grafts or prostheses [4,7,8,10].…”

“…They clinically develop as asymptomatic cervical masses, but they eventually may cause cranial nerve palsies. Among them, paragangliomas of the vagus nerve are less frequent in head and neck, being far behind from carotid and jugulotimpanic paragangliomas [1,[3][4][5][6]9]. The authors focus on radiologic features by CT-scan and MRI, which are of utmost importance for differential diagnosis and surgical treatment planning (Figs.…”

Introduction A rare case of vagal paraganglioma is reported. Material and MethodsThe specific radiological features of this tumor are presented to the clinician in order to make presumptive diagnosis. Conclusion By CT-scan and/or MRI it must be suspected when a hypervascular tumor in relation to the major cervical vessels displaces the internal and external carotid arteries forward, does not open the carotid bifurcation, and displaces the internal jugular vein backwards.
