Case series of congenital heterotopic neuroglial tissue in the parapharyngeal space
2016, International Journal of Pediatric OtorhinolaryngologyCitation Excerpt :There have only been 200 cases of heterotopic glioneuronal tissue reported and most are within the nasal cavity [2]. Other locations of the head and neck such as the orbit, middle ear, tongue, palate, pharynx, scalp or parapharyngeal space have also been described [1–10]. Here we present two cases of glioneuronal heterotopia arising in the parapharyngeal space.

2016, International Journal of Pediatric OtorhinolaryngologyA series of parapharyngeal glial heterotopia mimicking lymphatic malformation
2015, International Journal of Pediatric OtorhinolaryngologyCitation Excerpt :Extra-nasal glial heterotopia is rare, and while the incidence of nasal gliomas is reported to be 1 in 20,000–40,000 births [3], there are no exact figures for extra-nasal glial heterotopia. They have been reported to occur at various anatomical locations including the scalp, orbit, palate and neck, although fewer than thirty cases of pharyngeal or parapharyngeal glial heterotopia have been reported with most being single case reports [4,5]. Due to these masses sharing clinical and radiological features with other congenital head and neck masses, they often mimic alternate diagnoses with potential consequences of inappropriate treatment; to prevent these, case discussion within an experienced multidisciplinary team including a paediatric head and neck surgeon, paediatric head and neck radiologist, paediatric oncologist, and paediatric histopathologist is essential prior to initiating treatment.

Non-midline structures, such as the orbit, pterygopalatine fossa, face, neck lung/thoracic cavity, and middle ear, are seldom involved.1,3,6,9-16,24,25 HNT vary from cystic to firm in consistency.
