A retrospective study in management of carotid body tumour
British Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, 08/27/09
Ma D et al. – Of the 55 excised tumours, 14 were resected successfully without injury to the carotid artery, 25 were resected with the external carotid artery, 5 had arteriorrhaphy, and 11 resulted in sacrificing the unilateral internal carotid artery. Six patients had interposition reconstruction of the ICA. Immediately after operation 14 patients had neurological damage, which was permanent in 3, and 2 developed stroke. There were no deaths. Once the ICA is resected, vascular reconstruction is recommended to minimise neurological morbidity.
