Abstract

Intrapericardial paragangliomas are rare, highly vascular tumors that frequently adhere to adjacent structures and blood vessels, making surgical resection challenging. In this case series, we discuss the role of multimodality imaging and preoperative embolization in the management of 3 patients presenting with intrapericardial paragangliomas. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
