These mostly benign lesions are often recognised due to their typical location, vessel displacement and intratumoral blood flow, features that are usually observed in different imaging modalities. In differential diagnosis, lymphadenopathies, branchial cleft cysts, salivary gland tumours, schwannomas and aneurysms of the carotid artery should be considered. Case presentation: A 36-year-old male was presented with a lump on the right side of the neck eleven months after being treated for testicular cancer. He was referred for fine-needle aspiration biopsy. The sample was diagnosed as a lymph node metastasis of a teratoma component of the germinal tumour or of another primary tumour. Performed neck US and fluorine [F-18]-fluoro-deoxy-Dglucose (FDG) PET-CT showed no signs of hypervascularity or vessel displacement. A functional neck dissection of levels II through V was planned. During the procedure, a suspicion of carotid paraganglioma was raised, and the tumour was carefully dissected from the walls of both carotid arteries with minimal blood loss. The histology report revealed carotid paraganglioma with no metastasis in the rest of the lymph nodes. Conclusion: This is a case of carotid paraganglioma over-treatment by neck dissection performed in a patient previously diagnosed with testicular germ cell tumour. paragangliomi rak na modih novotvorbe na modih true false true Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik by Authors Neznano 2018-08-31 13:34:10 2018-08-31 13:34:10 2022-08-24 17:47:23 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2012 0 0 Bibliografija: str. 105; str. 103-105, 114 št. 2 Letn. 16 dec. 2012 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 616.64/.68-006.6:616.839-006.6 1408-1741 URN:NBN:SI:doc-UZ312VVG 1407611 65324032 RAZ_Peric_Barbara_i2012.pdf RAZ_Peric_Barbara_i2012.pdf 1 31D200F978E67E630E007AB7FADEA83A fa3f3d2d63848becf295da28a3741ed3fba88eb167a59f21e835f4d2c4f8584b 6a451c12-17b5-11ed-b6b8-001a4af901a5 20.500.12556/dirros/2a65c471-6f96-451e-8151-a1b7e69a0dec https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=10754 Onkološki inštitut Ljubljana Onkologija : strokovni časopis za zdravnike 0 0 0
