- Abstract
- The authors report their experience of three cases of carotid corpuscle tumors: two are bilateral and pertaining to the same family, one of them is associated with a bilateral tympano-jugular glomus. First they review the epidemiology and definitions of such tumors and then they develop the various clinical aspects and differential diagnosis of these tumors. They insist on the necessity of a CT scan examination and of an angiography. They give their experience of the preoperative embolization of the tumour vessels. They expose various aspects of the surgical technique, pointing out the interest of a large access, the need of a regular surgery and the necessary collaboration between head and neck surgeons and vascular surgeons. Finally they discuss the opportuneness to operate bilateral glomic tumors.
