Surgical management of carotid body tumor.

Carotid body tumor or chemodectoma is a slow-growing lesion; it should be diagnosed early to facilitate the technical surgical resection. When these lesions are large, the routine use of a carotid internal bypass shunt is advocated for their safe removal. With the newer vascular approaches, specifically the carotid internal bypass shunt, resection can be performed with acceptable risks. A patient with large bilateral carotid body tumors had successful resection of both these lesions.
