Glomus intravagale (paraganglioma of the nodose ganglion and/or vagus nerve) is an unusual tumor. There are approximately 45 cases reported in the literature; the authors report four more cases. This tumor may ba associated with other paragangliomas of the head and neck, such as carotid body tumors, and may metastasize to regional lymph nodes, although the histology always appears benign.
迷走球瘤(结节状神经节和/或迷走神经副神经节瘤)是一种罕见的肿瘤。文献中报道了约45例;作者又报告了4例。这种肿瘤可能与头颈部的其他副神经节瘤有关,如颈动脉体瘤,并且可能转移至区域淋巴结,尽管其组织学表现始终为良性。
