Clinical Experience In Carotid Body Tumors: Imaging Techniques And Surgical Approaches
Öz
Method: The information about the patients presented in the article was obtained by retrospectively examining the hospital file records
Results: The mean age of 15 [14 females (93.3%); 1 male (6.7%)] patients was52.47 ± 13.278 (min: 25; max: 69).Only one (6.7% ) patient had bilateral tumor. The complaint of 12 (80%) patients was swelling in the neck of. In the remaining three (20%) patients, the tumor in the neck was detected incidentally.According to the Shamblin classification; five (33.3%) patients were classified as Type 1, nine (60%) patients were classified as Type 2, and one (6.7%) patient was classified Type 3. The mean tumor diameter obtained was 3.053 ± 0.9342 cm (min:1,5 cm – max:4.7 cm),and all histopathological diagnosis were benign paraganglioma. All patients were treated surgically, and no patient has any previous treatment history of carotid body tumor. No significant postoperative permanent morbidity was detected in any of the patients.
Conclusion: Carotid body tumors can be curative treated by surgical excision. However, because of its close relationship with the carotid artery, its surgery is special. Preoperatively meticulously evaluation of patients will increase the success of the surgery and reduce the postoperative complication rate.
