Abstract
in English, Chinese

ead and neck paraganglioma（HNPGL） often originates from the parasympathetic ganglia and is a highly invasive benign tumor. The diagnosis and treatment of this disease with strong heterogeneity is still a challenge. In the future, deep exploration is needed in genetic typing, grading diagnosis and treatment decisions, protection of cranial nerves and new drug treatments to better treat this disease.

摘要：头颈部副神经节瘤多起源于副交感神经节，是一种侵袭性较强的良性肿瘤。对于这一类异质性较强的疾病的诊治目前仍是挑战。未来需要在遗传学分型、分级诊疗决策、保护颅神经及新型药物治疗等方面深入探索，以期更好的治疗该疾病。.

Keywords: diagnosis; head and neck paragangliomas; treatment.
