This case report highlights the multimodality imaging features of a rare intrapericardial paraganglioma.
Hypothesis-generating for multimodality imaging of rare intrapericardial paraganglioma; larger series needed before changing practice.
Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors arising from the ganglia of the sympathetic or parasympathetic nervous system. Less than 160 cases of intrapericardial or intracardiac paragangliomas have been reported in the English language peer-reviewed medical literature. Here, we report a case of intrapericardial paraganglioma, which illustrates some typical multimodality imaging features of this rare entity.
