Abstract

Malignant vagal paraganglioma is very uncommon and the diagnosis of malignancy is made on the basis of presence of distant metastasis rather than the histological findings. We report angiography findings of metastatic cervical lymph nodes in a case of malignant vagal paraganglioma. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
