Paragangliomas (PGLs) of Head and Neck region account for 0.6% of Head and Neck Tumours. These may originate in paraganglionic tissues in the area of carotid bifurcation, vagus nerve, tympanic plexus and very rarely along vertical Facial nerve canal (FNC). We intend to describe a rare case of primary paraganglioma of FNC associated with hypoxia of submarine environment, its characterization and multidisciplinary approach towards its management.
头颈部副神经节瘤（PGLs）占头颈部肿瘤的 0.6%。这些肿瘤可能起源于颈动脉分叉处、迷走神经、鼓膜丛的副神经节组织，非常罕见的情况下也可起源于面神经垂直段（FNC）。我们旨在描述一例与潜水环境缺氧相关的 FNC 原发性副神经节瘤的罕见病例，对其特征进行描述，并采用多学科方法进行治疗。
