Illustration of a small paraganglioma at the carotid bifurcation, with a mass splaying the internal and external carotid arteries and nearby nerves. In anatomy and pathology, this lesion is a carotid body tumor (CBT), classified as type I (Shamblin), indicating minimal arterial encasement. The hierarchy shown is a chemoreceptor organ (carotid body) within the neck vasculature. The carotid body normally enables peripheral chemoreception of blood oxygen. Visible vessels include the common carotid dividing into the internal carotid artery (ICA) and external carotid artery (ECA).
