Abstract

Objectives: In this study, we present our surgical experience for carotid body tumors (CBT), which are rare neoplasms arising from the paraganglion cells.Patients and methods: Between January 2000 and December 2009, a total of 12 patients with CBT (4 males, 8 females; mean age 50.3±8.4 years; range, 35 to 70 years) who underwent surgical excision in our clinic were retrospectively analyzed. Magnetic resonance imaging was used for the diagnosis. The patients were evaluated in terms of clinical and operative parameters, and postoperative complications.Results: The mean follow-up was 7.5 years. One of the patients was operated bilaterally after two years. Three patients underwent endovascular embolization before surgery. As our standard procedure, the tumor was dissected from the carotid artery subadventitially, while three patients underwent internal carotid artery (ICA) revascularization due to ICA invasion. The external carotid artery (ECA) was also ligated in three patients. Lymph node dissection was performed in two patients. However, pathology result was reported as a reactive lymph node. None of the patients received radiotherapy. Left hemiplegia occurred in one patient after surgery, and the same patient died at the third year due to a non-surgical cause. No recurrences or major complications were seen during follow-up of other patients.Conclusion: The definitive treatment of KCTs which are clinically considered malignant due to their localization is surgical excision. The ICA and ECA ligation may be required in the advanced stages of tumors. However, ICA revascularization has a vital importance in these patients. In addition, utmost meticulousness is required to avoid nerve and vessel injuries during surgery. Although recurrent lesions have been reported in these patients, long-term results are satisfactory

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada paragangliyon hücrelerden köken alan nadir tümörler olan karotis cisim tümörlerine (KCT) ilişkin cerrahi deneyimimiz sunuldu.Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Ocak 2000 - Aralık 2009 tarihleri arasında kliniğimizde cerrahi eksizyon yapılan toplam 12 KCT hastası (4 erkek, 8 kadın; ort. yaş 50.3±8.4 yıl; dağılım, 35-70 yıl) geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Tanıda manyetik rezonans görüntüleme kullanıldı. Hastalar klinik ve cerrahi parametreler ve ameliyat sonrası komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Ortalama takip süresi 7.5 yıl idi. Hastalardan biri iki yıl sonra iki taraflı olarak ameliyat edildi. Üç hastaya ameliyat öncesi endovasküler embolizasyon yapıldı. Standart prosedürümüz gereği, tümör karotis arterlerden subadventisyal yöntemle eksize edilirken, üç hastada internal karotis arter (İKA) invazyonu nedeni ile İKA revaskülarizasyonu yapıldı. Üç hastanın da eksternal karotis arteri (EKA) ligate edildi. İki hastada lenf nodu diseksiyonu yapıldı. Ancak patoloji sonuçları reaktif lenf nodu olarak bildirildi. Hiçbir hastaya radyoterapi verilmedi. Ameliyat sonrası bir hastada sol hemipleji gelişti ve aynı hasta üçüncü yılda cerrahi dışı bir nedenle kaybedildi. Diğer hastaların takiplerinde herhangi bir nüks ya da majör bir komplikasyona rastlanmadı.Sonuç: Yerleşim yeri itibariyle klinik olarak malign kabul edilen KCT'lerinin kesin tedavisi cerrahidir. Bu tümörlerin ileri evrelerinde İKA ve EKA ligasyonu gerekebilir. Ancak bu hastalarda İKA revaskülarizasyonu hayati önem taşır. Ayrıca ameliyat sırasında sinir ve damar yaralanmalarına yol açmamak için azami titizlik göstermek gerekmektedir. Bu hastalarda nüks lezyonlar bildirilmiş ise de uzun dönem sonuçları memnun edicidir
