Carotid body tumor, an extra-adrenal paraganglioma, represents an uncommon entity arising in chemoreceptor  tissue located at the carotid bifurcation. They commonly present as asymptomatic neck masses and careful preoperative  evaluation is required to find out the functional and vascular status of these tumours. An unusual case of a large (70 × 50 × 45 mm) carotid body tumor of Shamblin type III in a 50 year old male is being presented here. The evaluation,  management and the final outcome of this case of carotid body tumour is being reported here.
