Abstract
Glomus tumors of the head and neck typically compress adjacent blood vessels and cranial nerves and result in varied clinical presentations. Moreover, they are seldom encountered, even at large medical centers, and specialists in neurosurgery, otolaryngology, and radiation oncology have yet to reach a generalized consensus regarding the optimal management approach. In an effort to summarize the available data and better elucidate optimal treatment and management strategies for glomus tumors, we conducted a review of the published literature on this topic with emphasis on stereotactic radiosurgery.
期刊介绍：
Published since 1966, this series has become universally recognized as the most significant group of books serving neurological surgeons. Volumes feature contributions from distinguished international surgeons, who brilliantly review the literature from the perspective of their own personal experience. The result is a series of works providing critical distillations of developments of central importance to the theory and practice of neurological surgery.
