| pubmed-article:3039959 | pubmed:abstractText | Glomus intravagale tumours are relatively rare tumours. A case is described and some aspects of its management are discussed with emphasis on the pre-operative investigation and diagnosis of this condition. Selective embolization of the lesion before operation is an important adjunct in treatment to reduce the vascularity of the tumour during operation. Intra-operative cardiac arrest due to traction of the vagus nerve was encountered. The methods to avoid this complication are discussed. | lld:pubmed |
