- Abstract
The article presents a study on the differential diagnosis of prestyloid parapharyngeal (carotid) space masses. The study used retrospective chart review to evaluate the presentation of the tumors and the outcomes of surgical treatment. It concludes that cervical sympathetic tumors can be safely managed with operative intervention with less than a 15% incidence of cranial nerve weakness.
