Popis:	Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors. The most common site is the adrenals cervical region. Cervical paragangliomasare divided into carotid body and vagus types. Here, we report the case of a non-functional cervical paraganglioma in a 78-yearoldmale came with complaints of swelling in the left side of the neck for 2 years. On imaging, guided core needle biopsy showedeosinophilic cells with vacuolated nuclei and some inclusion bodies which suggested a possible clear cell tumor, neuroendocrinetumor or a paraganglioma. Complete surgical excision was done under general anesthesia, postoperative histopathology andimmunohistochemistry markers (S100, Synaptophysin, and Ki67) suggested of paraganglioma.
