Paragangliomas are uncommon neuroendocrine tumors. In the head and neck region they are most commonly associated with the carotid body, vagus nerve, jugulotympanic paraganglia, and occasionally the superior and inferior laryngeal paraganglia. Laryngeal paragangliomas and subglottic paragangliomas are rare. There have been nine reported cases in the English literature of subglottic paragangliomas. We present a case of this unusual lesion and discuss histologic characteristics and surgical treatment.
副神经节瘤是一种罕见的神经内分泌肿瘤。在头颈部区域,它们最常与颈动脉体、迷走神经、颈鼓室副神经节相关,偶尔也与喉上和喉下副神经节有关。喉副神经节瘤和声门下副神经节瘤较为罕见。英文文献中报道了9例声门下副神经节瘤病例。我们报告一例这种罕见病变,并讨论其组织学特征和手术治疗方法。
