  • Title: Vagal body tumors: diagnosis and treatment.
    Author: Moore G, Yarington CT, Mangham CA.
    Journal: Laryngoscope; 1986 May; 96(5):533-6. PubMed ID: 3010016.
    Abstract:
    This presentation includes a report of four vagal body tumors bringing the total number in the English literature to approximately 80. The diagnosis and treatment of this lesion, its familial incidence and the propensity for multiple secreting or nonsecreting chemodectomas, and appropriate clinical and pathologic studies required will be reviewed in some detail. Appropriate differential diagnostic features will be illustrated by comparison of these tumors with other primary vagal tumors from our experience such as neurofibromas, neurilemmomas, and cystic degeneration of neurilemmomas.
