Description
Summary:[...]the clinical diagnosis was determined to be sympathetic paraganglioma with paraganglioma syndrome 3 originating from the pericardium. [...]the patient underwent treatment involving an alpha receptor blocker, long-acting somatostatin, and three cycles of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) granules. [...]the activation of BAT and the utilization of multimodal imaging techniques significantly contribute to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of mediastinal paragangliomas.
