The Relationship Between Tumor Size and Electrocardiographic Findings in Carotid Body Paragangliomas: A Retrospective Observational Study
This study demonstrates a strong correlation between CBT size and QTc prolongation, suggesting vagal overactivity as a possible mechanism. QTc may serve as a noninvasive marker of subclinical autonomic dysregulation in CBT patients. Larger prospective studies are warranted to validate this association and explore its clinical significance.
