A case of ganglioneuroma presenting in a parapharyngeal location in a 4-year-old girl was subjected to fine needle aspiration cytology. A preoperative diagnosis of ganglioneuroma was subsequently confirmed on histopathologic examination. Only a few reports on the cytologic features of this tumor exist. The importance of considering this diagnosis for a tumor at an unusual site and in an uncommon age group is stressed.
