Abstract

The vagal nerve paraganglioma is a rare tumor over all the head and neck tumours. It presents with a insidious clinic, appearing usually as a asymptomatic laterocervical mass of low growth pattern. We present a case of a 53 years old woman with a left of painless laterocervical mass that produced cough with the palpation. We pretend to review the most relevant aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of the paraganglioma and therefore include this pathology in the differential diagnosis of laterocervical tumor.
