- W39442563 abstract "Abstract Objective: To review the presentation, management and outcome of carotid body tumors at a University Hospitalin Karachi. Setting: The Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi - a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan. Methods: The medical records of all the patients who were admitted between 1st January1991 to 1st January2002, with a diagnosis of carotid body tumor and underwent surgical resection, were identified using the ICD-9-CM coding system. The variables reviewed included demographic features, clinical presentation, diagnosis,management and outcome. The data was analyzed using the student t-test for continuous variables and theFischer Exact test for categorical data, with computer-based SPSS version 10 software package. Results: A total of 8 patients with 8 carotid body tumors were treated surgically during the study period of 11years. The study group consisted of 6 males and 2 females with a median age of 46 years (range: 26-68 years).All the eight patients presented with a history of neck mass which was progressively increasing in size. Physicalexamination revealed well-circumscribed firm masses at the angle of jaw in 6 patients. The other two patientshad large tumors extending to the base of skull. The mainstay of final diagnosis was angiography, which wasperformed in all 8 patients. Pre-operative angio-embolization was done in three patients; followed by completesurgical resection in all 8 patients. There was no peri-operative mortality or stroke in these patients. Transientnerve palsies involving 7th and 12th cranial nerves were noted in three patients. One patient had permanent uni-lateral vocal cord palsy resulting in hoarseness of voice. Median follow up was 1 year with range from 8 weeksto 3 years; none of the patients had any recurrence during the follow-up period." @default.
