Abstract：
:The authors present 6 cases of carotid glomus tumours referred to their attention over the past 10 years. Their experience shows that colour ultrasonography (using both morphological and functional evaluation) is the diagnostic key for defining the treatment of paraganglioma. More recent experience highlights the role of 111In Pentreotride using a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach.
