Abstract
Carotid body tumors are rare, benign, vascular, slow growing and invasive to adjacent structures. The tumor originates from the neural crest paraganglion cells (1). Infiltration into the adjacent tissues and into the jugular vascular area requires surgical excision (2). During surgery intraluminal shunt procedure is usually required (3). The goal in the presentation of these case reports is to discuss preoperative angiographic findings and different monitoring options for cerebral ischemia prevention during removal of carotid body tumors (3, 4).
