Özet
Parafarengeal ganglioneuroma is a very rare benign tumor originating from the sympathetic nervous system that produces mass and functional effects. Ganglioneuroma is most commonly caused by the posterior mediastinal, retroperitoneal area and adrenal glands. Generally, they do not present any additional signs or symptoms other than mass. Horner's syndrome may sometimes occur due to the compression of the sympathetic chain. A 41-year-old male patient with a long-standing mass in the lateral compartment of the left neck was admitted to our clinic. The patient was operated, and the pathological result of the mass was reported as ganglioneuroma. We present a rare case of ganglioneuroma in paraphryngeal space by reviewing the current literature.
