Zusammenfassung:Paragangliomas arise from varied anatomic locations, including the skull base, and can be functional or nonfunctional, leading to a vast array of presenting symptoms.1 In jugular paraganglioma, treatment is individualized, since resection and radiotherapy each offer durable tumor control.2 To our knowledge, this is the first case of low CSF pressure headache following primary radiation therapy of jugular paraganglioma. [...]of radiotherapy, the size of the tumor decreased radiographically, perhaps leaving a dural defect.
