A case of
paraganglioma
of parasellar origin in a 7-year-old girl is described. She presented with hemibase syndrome with involvement of a majority of the left cranial nerves. Three times in the past 2 years she had recurrent
ophthalmoplegia
with complete recovery. She was treated surgically and with postoperative radiotherapy. The site of origin of this
paraganglioma
as well as the clinical presentation are uncommon features in this case.

Two cases of
paraganglioma
arising from the parasellar region are presented. Both occurred in middle-aged women who sought treatment of headaches but who had no endocrinological dysfunction; one case was associated with
ophthalmoplegia
from cavernous sinus involvement. Diagnosis in both cases was confirmed by typical histological appearance and cytochemical demonstration of immunoreactive chromogranin in tumor cells. The pathological features and possible pathogenesis of parasellar paragangliomas are discussed.
