TORANZO FERNANDEZ, José Martín; COLUNGA, Rodolfo e GONZALEZ VALDEZ, Laura Gabriela. Carotid body paraganglioma: clinical case report with family correlation. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2011, vol.33, n.2, pp.79-83. ISSN 2173-9161.
The head and neck paragangliomas are infrequent neoplases that originate from a paraganglionar tissue of the brachiomeric group that are linked to the development of the branchial arches; they are not cromafins since they do not secrete catecholamines1. The most frequent one appears in the carotid body that originates from the paraganglions located in the adventitia of the carotid body's bifurcation2.
