A patient with paraganglioma undergoing laparoscopic resection: a case report

Paraganglioma is a very rare extraadrenal nonepithelial tumor. The number of cases of laparoscopic surgery in Paraganglioma is small and controversial. This study encountered a case of successful transperitoneal laparoscopic surgery for a 56‐mm paraganglioma in a 53‐year‐old female. Moreover, previous reports on laparoscopic surgery for paraganglioma are reviewed.
A round tumor with capsule with a clear boundary was observed, and no necrosis existed on the cut surface. Moreover, yellow consolidation was observed.
