Abstract

|
|
|
Surgical resection is the only option for the treatment of carotid body tumor. The tumor is characterized by its hypervascularity and adherence to the carotid artery. Neurovascular injuries have been a well known surgical complication during the procedure. We experienced a case of carotid artery injury during the resection of carotid body tumor and which was reconstructed with interposition graft using autogenous vein. Vascular injury as a complication during the resection of carotid body tumor was reviewed.
