The aim of present study is to define characteristics, complications, and outcomes of patients with carotid body tumor treated without embolization and by subadvantitial tumor resection. Methods: this cross sectional study was performed in Al Zahra hospital during 2004-2009 among patients candidate for carotid body tumor resection. Demographic data as well as complications attributed to operation were collected. Data were analyzed by SPSS software. Finding: 32 patients and 36 operations were enrolled. Mean age was 51.4  13.62 years. 12.5 % of subjects were male and 87.5% were female. All tumors were diagnosed as paraganglioma by histopathology examination. Mean size of tumors was 3.4  0.91 cm.

Conclusion: The rate of complications among our series of patients operated without preoperative angioembolization via subadvantisial dissection were overall acceptable.
