Pseudoaneurysm (PSA) formation is an uncommon complication in carotid surgery. PSA of the carotid artery requires surgical or endovascular treatment to prevent PSA thrombosis, embolization from the thrombotic material within the PSA, hemorrhage after rupture, or compression on the adjacent structures. We present a case of a symptomatic common carotid PSA that occurred 14 months after routinely performed eversion carotid endarterectomy.

Abstract. A carotid artery pseudoaneurysm in an irradiated neck is a rare entity with possible devastating results and management should be multidisciplinary. We present a successful endovascular treatment of a late carotid artery pseudoaneurysm following patch endarterectomy and cervical radiotherapy.

This report aims to present a rare case of a common carotid artery (CCA) pseudoaneurysm with a concomitant internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis that were treated with a hybrid technique. This strategy included the retrograde placement of a CCA covered stent under ICA clamping followed by standardized carotid endarterectomy. The technique will be discussed and compared with other possible treatments.

We report the imaging findings and endovascular treatment in an unusual case of petrous internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm due to primary tuberculous otitis. The aneurysm was recognized and ruptured during a surgical intervention for otitis. Successful endovascular treatment of the aneurysm was performed by occlusion of the parent vessel using detachable balloon and coils.

<p>We performed carotid endarterectomy on a patient with 75% stenosis of the left internal carotid artery (ICA), 70% stenosis of the left common carotid artery (CCA), 60% stenosis of the right ICA and 55% stenosis of the right CCA after a transient ischaemic attack on the premises of the surgical unit of Russian Railways Hospital–Medicine (Samara), which is the clinical site for the care of surgical diseases at Samara State Medical University. During the preoperative evaluation and physical examination, we determined that the chance of high CCA bifurcation was high because the patient had a brachymorphic physique and his neck was short and broad. In fact, during the surgical exploration of the carotid triangle area, the CCA bifurcation was identified 7 ± 0.5 cm higher than the shield-like cartilage rim; thus the CCA bifurcation area crossed the stems of the glossopharyngeal (IX), vagus (X) and hypoglossal (XII) nerves, which precluded classic carotid endarterectomy. We then decided to perform carotid endarterectomy, using the eversion method and transposing the ICA above the rami of the cranial nerves. Through this method, we minimised traction and nerve stem trauma during the process of reconstructing brachiocephalic trunk arteries, prevented morbidities involving the cranial nerves during postsurgical period, accelerated the patient’s recovery and improved the patient’s quality of life. With further patient monitoring during the early and late postoperative periods, no abnormalities of peripheral innervation occurred.</p><p>Received 26 March 2021. Revised 6 May 2021.
