Paraganglioma of the Neck: A Rare Case With Spinal Metastasis

颈部副神经节瘤:一例罕见的脊柱转移病例

阅读:1

Abstract

Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors that arise from the paraganglia, which are clusters of neuroendocrine cells associated with the autonomic nervous system. These tumors are commonly found in the adrenal medulla but can also occur in other locations outside the adrenal gland. Here, we present a case report of a slow-growing paraganglioma in the left neck with spinal metastasis in a 60-year-old man. This case highlights the importance of considering paraganglion tumors in the differential diagnosis of neck masses and the need for early diagnosis and management to prevent potential complications. Importantly, both the clinical picture and anatomical location of these tumors is important when determining treatment plans.
