[Diagnosis and treatment of neck chemodectoma].
The work is based on the analysis of clinical data of 10 patients with chemodectoma of the neck, 8 of them being subjected to surgery. The diagnosis in 8 operated patients was confirmed histologically, 2 non-operated patients had angiographic manifestations. It is emphasized that carotid angiography plays an important role in establishing the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of benign and malignant chemodectoma. There were noted no mortality and postoperative complications. The oncological aspects of surgery for chemodectoma are also discussed.
