Etiopathogenesis and clinical presentation of carotid body tumors.

Microscopy research and technique - 1 Nov 2002

Baysal Bora E, Myers Eugene N

Abstract excerpt

The carotid body (CB) is a highly specialized small organ located at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery in the neck and plays an important role in acute adaptation to hypoxia. The most common diseased state of the carotid body is its enlargement (i.e., the CB paraganglioma), which can be caused by a genetic predisposition (hereditary paraganglioma, PGL) and by chronic hypoxic stimulation. The CB is the...
