This paper is a case report of a young patient after a major head trauma causing multiple skull base fractures. The trauma occasioned pseudoaneurysm (PSA) from intracavernous C4 segment of left internal carotid artery (ICA) protruding in the sphenoidal sinus. After two months, two episodes of massive epistaxis occurred. Consequently, the post-traumatic PSA was treated, after carotid occlusion test, with flow-diverter stent positioning. A computed tomography angiography study performed in the following days showed complete resolution of the post-traumatic PSA lesion and ICA patency.

We report a case of traumatic intracranial carotid artery pseudoaneurysm treated with an equine pericardium-covered stent. The patient was admitted to the Emergency Department after sustaining severe polytrauma in a motor vehicle accident. A cavernous carotid pseudoaneurysm was detected after an episode of massive epistaxis that required emergent nasal packing. Treatment with parent vessel sacrifice was ruled out after an unfavourable balloon test occlusion. We opted for an equine pericardium-covered stent as a means to immediately seal the wall defect in the setting of massive bleeding secondary to an unstable lesion. We describe the potential benefits and drawbacks of these prostheses and the technical difficulties encountered in this particular case. To our best knowledge, this is the first published case report on a post-traumatic intracranial internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm successfully treated with an equine pericardium-covered stent.

Intracranial Dissection

Intracranial dissection of the internal carotid artery after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a serious complication with a potentially fatal outcome. We report on a 67 male with a symptomatic high grad stenosis of the internal carotid artery. Intraoperative completion angiography showed a thrombotic occlusion and the internal carotid artery (ICA) was resected with interposition of a Dacron graft. Completion angiography then revealed a dissection of the petreous ICA, which was corrected by insertion of a coronary artery stent.Stenting of the ICA is a useful tool to restore cerebral perfusion without time delay and completion imaging is extremely helpful for early detection of dissection during CEA.

Head and neck injuries are very common in Hong Kong, especially resulting from assaulted or traffic accidents. Delayed manifestation of post-traumatic carotid thrombo-embolism and aneurismal formation are known pitfalls that emergency physicians and neurosurgeons may encounter. We present a patient with blunt neck injury with the complication of traumatic dissection of the extracranial internal carotid artery.
