Malignant vagal paraganglioma
Abstract
Vagal paraganglioma is a rare usually benign tumour of neural crest origin. The malignant form of this tumour is very uncommon and the diagnosis is made on the basis of its clinical behaviour rather than its histological appearance. We report a case of vagal paraganglioma metastatic to adjacent cervical nodes and discuss the diagnosis and management of this tumour.
