AbstractInflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMTs) in the head and neck region are common, but those with sympathetic trunk involvement are extremely rare. Here we present a case of cervical sympathetic trunk-centered IMT which is also accompanied by ipsilateral carotid artery, internal jugular vein, and vagus nerve involvement. The patient initially complained of an episodic painful swelling on the right side of the neck and underwent surgery. Preoperative and postoperative serum IgG4 level during 3-year follow-up time is within normal limits. Immunohistochemical study of the tumor has also revealed negativity to IgG4. Postoperative first bite syndrome (FBS) was observed. Surgery seems to be first-line therapy in the patient with IgG4-negative IMT.

The density and diameter distributions of intramembranous particles (IMPS) within unmyelinated axolemma from rat cervical sympathetic trunk were examined with freeze–fracture electron microscopy. The axolemma displays a highly asymmetrical partitioning of IMPS with ca . 1200 IMPS μm –2 on P-faces and ca . 100 IMPS μm –2 on E-faces. Particle sizes (diameters) are unimodally distributed on both fracture faces, with a range from 2.4 nm to 15.6 nm. Approximately 16% of the particles on P-faces and 28% of particles on E-faces are of a large (greater than 9.6 nm) diameter. On both fracture faces, the IMPS appear to be randomly distributed; no aggregations of particles were observed. The results indicate that there are ca . 230 large IMPS μm –2 of unmyelinated axolemma from rat cervical sympathetic trunk. The density of these IMPS is similar to the density of saxitoxin binding sites on unmyelinated axolemma from rat cervical sympathetic trunk (Pellegrino et al . 1984 ( Brain Res . 305, 357–360)), which suggests that many of the large diameter particles may be the morphological correlate of voltage-sensitive Na + channels.
