title: [Intracerebral extension of cervical paraganglioma].
abstract: A large paraganglioma invaded the neck and skull, with extension into the right supratentorial cerebral hemisphere through the calvarium. Immunohistological markers were found useful for the diagnosis. The patient died rapidly. Despite no evidence of metastasis, the usually benign paraganglioma can have a malignant course.
