Carotid artery aneurysms account for 4% of peripheral aneurysms and may present as a neck mass, with hemispheric ischaemic symptoms, or with symptoms secondary to local compression. This case explores the presentation, investigations and management of a presumed mycotic common carotid artery aneurysm in a 77-year-old male, which was repaired using end-to-end interposition vein graft using long saphenous vein. This report discusses the aetiology, presentation and surgical management for carotid artery aneurysms, as well as focusing on that of the rare mycotic carotid artery aneurysm.

Carotid Artery Aneurysm

AbstractExtracranial carotid artery aneurysms are rare, but are occasionally recognized as causing dysphagia. These aneurysms generally occur at or above the bifurcation. Here we present what we believe is a unique case: a common carotid artery aneurysm compressing the upper oesophagus, and mimicking the obstruction of a post-cricoid carcinoma.

Uncommon Disease

Extracranial carotid artery aneurysm is an uncommon disease that otorhinolaryngologists may encounter only rarely. It usually presents as pulsatile neck mass or as other neurologic symptoms. We report a case of extracranial internal carotid artery aneurysm in an 81-year old female who presented with a fever and nonpulsatile oropharyngeal swelling mimicking a peritonsillar abscess. Incision and drainage of the swelling lesion could have resulted in catastrophic events such as aneurismal rupture or a stroke. We thus recommend radiologic evaluations of peritonsillar abscess before performing any procedure, even if it is clinically highly suspicious.

Vascular Suture

False aneurysms are relatively rare in peacetime. Even more rare is the operation of vascular suture in common carotid artery aneurysm. This last circumstance prompts us to describe a case of false aneurysm, where suturing of a. carotis communis was required, which took place in our clinic.
