[Vagal paraganglioma. Apropos of 2 cases. Review of the literature]
Abstract
The authors relate the case of two patients of 61 and 64 years old, each one having a high latero-cervical tumor, arching the soft palate, developed from the right vagus nerve and which was a chromaffin paraganglioma. After a recall about the APUD system tumors and the "paraganglioma" concept, they relate their observations at state of the vagal paraganglioma histology, pathology and treatment.
