    Lateral cervical chemodectomas, including carotid body tumors and intravagal glomus tumors, present with subtle symptoms. Arteriography is crucial for diagnosis and surgical planning, guiding precise tumor resection.

    Area of Science:

    • Head and Neck Surgery
    • Diagnostic Imaging
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Lateral cervical chemodectomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors.
    • Carotid body tumors and intravagal glomus tumors represent distinct entities within this category.
    • Clinical presentation is often nonspecific, necessitating advanced diagnostic modalities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To delineate the diagnostic and surgical features of lateral cervical chemodectomas.
    • To differentiate between carotid body tumors and intravagal glomus tumors.
    • To highlight the role of arteriography in pre-operative assessment and surgical strategy.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 16 carotid body tumors and 10 intravagal glomus tumors.
    • Detailed review of clinical presentations and arteriographic findings.

  • Evaluation of surgical approaches and outcomes.
  • Main Results:

    • Carotid glomus tumors typically present as isolated cervical masses.
    • Intravagal glomus tumors manifest as parapharyngeal, restrostyloid masses.
    • Arteriography provides pathognomonic signs, differentiating tumor location and assessing vascular involvement.

    Conclusions:

    • Arteriography is essential for accurate pre-operative diagnosis and surgical planning of lateral cervical chemodectomas.
    • A wide surgical approach is recommended for complete tumor excision.
    • Sub-adventitial resection is a viable technique for tumor removal.
