Paragangliomas of the head and neck are unique tumors. Their pathology, tissue of origin, location, genetics, potential for bio-chemical activity, multicentricity, and growth pattern are unusual compared with more common head and neck tumors. Because these tumors are widespread and can appear in the ear, neck, larynx, nose, orbit, and chest, they cross subspecialties of otolaryngology.
头颈部副神经节瘤是一种独特的肿瘤。与更常见的头颈部肿瘤相比,它们的病理学、起源组织、位置、遗传学、生化活性潜力、多中心性和生长模式都不寻常。由于这些肿瘤分布广泛,可出现在耳部、颈部、喉部、鼻部、眼眶和胸部,因此跨越了耳鼻喉科的多个亚专业领域。
