[Paraganglioma of the organ of Zuckerkandl].
From the study of one case of non secreting paraganglioma of the organ of Zuckerkandl, the authors have surveyed the existing literature gathering 95 cases from 1902 to 1992. It is an exceptional tumor of the paraganglioma and it often a secreting one. When it is not it looks like a malignant retroperitoneal tumor. The surgical resection is often performed without the operating diagnosis. Asserting the malignancy of these tumors only depends on the presents of metastasis appearing lately. There fore a long continued control of the patients who have been operated upon is a must all the more as 30% of the paraganglioma of Zuckerkandl prove to be malignants.
