متن کاملPrimary Pulmonary Paraganglioma
Primary pulmonary paraganglioma is a rare disease. We report a case of a 37-year old female patient with space-occupying lesions in the right lower pulmonary lobe during a routine examination without any symptoms. The patient underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) resection of the right middle lobe and dissection of hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes under general anesthesia. She ...

Pheochromocytomas are catecholamine-producing neuroendocrine tumors arise from primitive neural crest cells. About 90% of these tumors occur as solitary benign tumors of the adrenal medulla, where majority of chromaffin cells are concentrated. Only ten percent originates from extra-adrenal sites with the organ of Zukerkandal (paraganglia along abdominal aorta) being the most common. Chromaffin ...

Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a right paratracheal tumour (Fig. 1b, c). Rotational arteriography showed that the right thyrocervical artery was supplying the mass (Fig. 1d).

متن کاملPulmonary Paraganglioma Manifesting as an Endobronchial Mass
Thoracic paragangliomas comprise only 1-2% of all paragangliomas, including the adrenal pheochromocytomas, and these tumors are mostly found in the mediastinal compartments (1). To the best of our knowledge, there is only one case report in the pathology literature of endobronchial involvement by a primary pulmonary paraganglioma (2). We report here on the CT and bronchoscopic findings of a cas...
