Bilateral carotid body tumor: the role of fine-needle aspiration biopsy in the preoperative diagnosis.

abstract：:Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is an exquisitely rare neoplasm with a low incidence of metastasis. Previously, cytologic diagnosis of this entity, by fine needle aspiration (FNA) or endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA), was challenging, if not impossible. However, advancements in the...
