	Carotid Body Paraganglioma (May 1995)
		The carotid body was first described by von Haller in 1743 and is a round, reddish-brown to tan structure found in the adventitia of the common carotid artery.
		It is this close association with respiratory drive and the sympathetic nervous system response that have prompted investigation of the carotid body's role in disease processes such as obstructive sleep apnea and sudden infant death syndrome.
		Histologically, the paraganglioma is similar to the normal carotid body except that clusters tend to be larger(Zellballen formation).

		It then curves upward over the body of the mandible at the antero-inferior angle of the Masseter; passes forward and upward across the cheek to the angle of the mouth, then ascends along the side of the nose, and ends at the medial commissure of the eye, under the name of the angular artery.
		It arises from the back part of the external carotid, near the commencement of that vessel, and ascends vertically between the internal carotid and the side of the pharynx, to the under surface of the base of the skull, lying on the Longus capitis.

	EMPHYSEMA Overview Edgar Cayce Remedies: emphysema
		This carotid body, Phillips felt, is sort of a relay station in the autonomic nervous system from the mid-brain to the bronchial tree, and by removing it he felt he was interrupting the spastic element to the bronchial tree.
		Throughout the body, a balance is achieved in the functioning of an organ through the influences of the antagonistic sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which are part of the autonomic nervous system.
		The glands of the body should be brought to a balance, and the resistance of the body should be stimulated through improvement of assimilation and function of the Peyers patch area of the intestines.

		The thoracic portion of the left common carotid artery ascends from the arch of the aorta through the superior mediastinum to the level of the left sternoclavicular joint, where it is continuous with the cervical portion.
		The common carotid artery is contained in a sheath, which is derived from the deep cervical fascia and encloses also the internal jugular vein and vagus nerve, the vein lying lateral to the artery, and the nerve between the artery and vein, on a plane posterior to both.
		Behind the angle of bifurcation of the common carotid artery is a reddish-brown oval body, known as the glomus caroticum (carotid body).
