摘要
We report ultrasound-guided direct percutaneous injection of n-butyl cyanoacrylate for preoperative embolization of carotid body tumor in a 50-year-old patient. Angiographic road map assistance was used for protection of parent arteries during the injection. After embolization, complete devascularization of the tumor was achieved without complications. The tumor was removed surgically with minimal blood loss. This procedure is effective and promising for preoperative embolization of carotid body tumors.
