GP are composed of three cell types: (1) epithelioid cells resembling well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors or
paraganglioma in both cytologic and architectural features; (2) spindled cells resembling those seen in peripheral nerve sheath tumors; and (3) ganglion-like cells with characteristic abundant cytoplasm and prominent nucleoli (Figure 3).

paragangliomas: case report and literature review.
[5] described the first case of simultaneous VS and MEP affecting both sides and proposed a wait-and-scan policy for hearing preservation purposes also due to the limited size of the VS, while the larger

Also, in four patients with
paraganglioma, pheochromocytoma, parathyroid adenoma, and carcinoid tumors, who were monitored throughout their treatment course, CgA dropped sharply in the post-treatment phase within days, weeks or months, depending on the tumor.

Endocrine specialists gradually increased phenoxybenzamine to 60 mg every 8 hours and propranolol to 60 mg every 8 hours, over a two-week period of medical optimization prior to surgical resection of the

We would like to emphasize that clinicians and pathologist should be aware of the existence of gangliocytic
