This paraganglioma mainly occurs in carotid body, vagal body, and jugulotympanic area, but paraganglioma of the pyriform sinus is a very uncommon tumor and only a case of Zuckerkandl's organ was reported in Korea. The authors experienced a case of paraganglioma of pyriform sinus in a 25 years old male recently. |
