BACKGROUND
Paraganglioma is a rare but highly vascular tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Surgical resection is a challenge owing to the close proximity to vital structures including the heart, trachea and great vessels. Preoperative embolization has been reported once to facilitate surgical treatment.
CASE PRESENTATION
We report a case of anterior mediastinal paraganglioma that was embolized preoperatively, and was resected without the need for cardiopulmonary bypass and without major bleeding complications.
CONCLUSION
We make a case to further the role of preoperative embolization in the treatment of mediastinal paragangliomas.
背景
副神经节瘤是一种罕见但高度血管化的前纵隔肿瘤。由于靠近包括心脏、气管和大血管在内的重要结构，手术切除具有挑战性。据报道，术前栓塞术可促进手术治疗。
病例介绍
我们报告了一例前纵隔副神经节瘤患者，该患者术前进行了栓塞，并且在无需体外循环和无重大出血并发症的情况下进行了切除。
结论
我们进一步证明了术前栓塞术在治疗纵隔副神经节瘤中的作用。
