Background:

Foramen jugulare paragangliomas (JFP) are rare tumors requiring specialized management.
Previous management strategies had higher associated risks and lower success rates.

Purpose of the Study:

To survey the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of JFP.
To emphasize advancements in operative techniques and their impact on outcomes.

Main Methods:

Literature review of 175 JFP cases.
Analysis of personal experience with 26 JFP cases.
Focus on surgical techniques and pre-operative embolization.

Main Results:

Operative mortality reduced to 0-5% due to improved diagnostics and surgical techniques.
Pre-operative endovascular occlusion of feeding arteries enhances safety.
Incomplete removal rate for advanced tumors (C and D) decreased to approximately 15%.

Conclusions:

Modern diagnostic and surgical advancements have significantly improved outcomes for JFP.
While outcomes have improved, very large tumors remain challenging.
Multidisciplinary team collaboration among neuroradiologists, ENT surgeons, and neurosurgeons is essential for optimal patient care.
