A patient with large bilateral carotid body tumors had preoperative, superselective embolization of major arterial afferent vessels. After marked reduction in tumor vascularity, total surgical extirpation was then possible without significant morbidity or carotid sacrifice. The use of preoperative embolization in the treatment of large bilateral lesions is emphasized and discussed.
一名患有双侧巨大颈动脉体瘤的患者在术前对主要动脉传入血管进行了超选择性栓塞。在肿瘤血管显著减少后，随后得以进行完全手术切除，且未出现明显并发症或牺牲颈动脉。文中强调并讨论了术前栓塞在治疗双侧巨大病变中的应用。
