ABSTRACT
Objective:
To evaluate the clinicopathological features of primary retroperitoneal paragangliomas.Methods:
Data of 24 patients with retroperitoneal paragangliomas who underwent surgical treatment in our hospital from Jan 2015 to Dec 2018 was collected and analyzed.Results:
Hypertension, abdominal pain/discomfort and headache were the most common complaints while 10 patients were asymptomatic and were diagnosed accidently in routine body examination. Tumor size ranged from 3.4-13.0 cm (6.9±2.5) cm, and all the tumors were located in the vicinity of abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava. All the patients received surgical treatment. Intraoperative blood pressure fluctuations were significantly correlated with prolonged operation time, more blood loss, more blood transfusion and prolonged length of stay (all P<0.05). The median follow-up time was 29 months and 1 patient died from tumor recurrence and progression. The other patients have had a tumor free survival.Conclusions:
Surgical resection was the principal treatment of primary paraganglioma. Preoperative assessment was very important for perioperative safety.
