Abstract

Carotid glomus is a rare disease found among non–organ neck tumors in 0.5-0.9%, and among neurogenic neck tumors up to 37%. The latent course, symptoms similar to a large number of pathologies, lead to a high percentage of errors up to 25-90% and, as a result, to an untimely diagnosis. Diagnosis of carotid chemodectomy and metastatic node in the area of carotid artery bifurcation is a difficult task, which is based on the conclusion of the clinical picture, ultrasound, tomography and angiography, morphological verification is not carried out due to the high risk of bleeding and damage to cranial nerve branches. A chemodectoma with low vascularization is extremely difficult to diagnose. In this article, we present a similar case.
