CT angiography showed a 7-cm tumor encasing the carotid vessels, including the bifurcation (Shamblin III). Preoperative angiography and embolization were performed by interventional radiology. The patient underwent surgical removal of the CBTs and required surgical reconstruction with a common carotid to internal carotid bypass using a polytetrafluoroethylene interposition graft. The hypoglossal nerve, vagus nerve and glossopharyngeal nerve were identified, meticulously dissected and preserved. The patient did well after surgery and recovered with no complications. This report examines the diagnosis, preoperative workup and surgical management of CBTs using a multidisciplinary team approach.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,8]],"date-time":"2020-02-08T20:09:02Z","timestamp":1581192542000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["A multidisciplinary approach to carotid body tumors surgical management"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2020","author":[{"given":"David","family":"Fan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Flushing Hospital Medical Center, Flushing, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephanie","family":"Luster","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Flushing Hospital Medical Center, Flushing, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ibrahim G","family":"Eid","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Roger Williams Medical Center, Providence, RI, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdul","family":"Saied Calvino","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Roger Williams Medical Center, Providence, RI, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020030321374180600_ref1","first-page":"6417","article-title":"Diagnosis and treatment of a carotid body tumor: a case report of a rare bilateral tumor","volume":"14","author":"Sun","year":"2017","journal-title":"Oncol Lett"},{"key":"2020030321374180600_ref2","first-page":"526","article-title":"Morphologie und Klinik der Paragangliome im Kopf-Hals-Bereich","volume":"41","author":"Milewski","year":"1993","journal-title":"HNO"},{"key":"2020030321374180600_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"253","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-319-91533-3_21","volume-title":"Carotid Body Tumors.
