Аннотация
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: A vagal paraganglioma is a rare head and neck tumor arising from the paraganglionic tissue within the perineurium of the vagus nerve, anywhere along the course of the nerve. Due to its proximity to the internal carotid artery, the internal jugular vein and the lower cranial nerves, this disorder poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The diagnostic workup and management keep on evolving.
RECENT FINDINGS: This article gives a concise update of the clinical spectrum and the current state-of-the-art diagnostic workup and management of vagal paraganglioma.
SUMMARY: Every patient with suspected vagal paraganglioma needs to be evaluated by a multidisciplinary team. The management strategy is selected depending on the growth rate of the tumor, the age and fitness of the patient, the number of affected cranial nerves, the metabolic activity of the paraganglioma, and the eventual multicentricity. An algorithm guiding the clinician through the different treatment options is presented.
