[Bilateral carotid paraganglioma].
We report an unusual case of bilateral paraganglioma of the carotid. The tumor had been neglected for a long time and increased in volume during pregnancy, inducing compression and requiring surgical treatment. We focus on the therapeutic strategy: devascularization followed by percutaneous sclerosis before total surgical removal in a two-step procedure.
