In this operative video, we demonstrate resection of a giant carotid body paraganglioma that invaded the wall of the internal carotid artery (ICA). During tumor dissection, an ICA injury was encountered because of tumor invasion through the adventitia of the ICA wall. Therefore, the ICA was trapped proximally and distally, and tumor resection was performed. The ICA was successfully reconstructed using an interpositional heparin-coated vascular graft with an end-to-end “parachute” anastomosis, confirmed with ICG angiography.
