A carotid body tumor (CBT) is a rare highly vascular tumor. Therefore, the assessment of the tumor's vessels preoperatively is significant to decrease the risk of vascular complications intraoperatively. We report a case of carotid body tumor in a 40-year-old female who presented with a headache and a pulsatile right neck mass. She underwent computed tomography (CT), which demonstrated a well-circumscribed tumor mass measuring 3 X 2.7 X 3.6 cm. Preoperatively, selective embolization was performed in which Onyx 18 (Medtronic, Dublin, Ireland) and precipitating hydrophobic injectable liquid (PHIL) 25% (Microvention Inc, California) were used, and that achieved 95% embolization of tumor blood supply. One day after embolization, complete surgical resection was done by a multidisciplinary team.
颈动脉体瘤（CBT）是一种罕见的高血管性肿瘤。因此，术前评估肿瘤血管对于降低术中血管并发症的风险具有重要意义。我们报告一例40岁女性颈动脉体瘤病例，该患者表现为头痛和右侧颈部搏动性肿块。她接受了计算机断层扫描（CT），结果显示有一个边界清晰的肿瘤肿块，大小为3×2.7×3.6厘米。术前进行了选择性栓塞，使用了Onyx 18（美敦力公司，爱尔兰都柏林）和25%的沉淀型疏水性可注射液体（PHIL，Microvention公司，加利福尼亚），实现了肿瘤供血95%的栓塞。栓塞一天后，由一个多学科团队进行了完整的手术切除。
