Aberrant Internal Carotid Artery in the Temporal Bone: A Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal of Radiology and Imaging Technology - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
An aberrant internal carotid artery (ICA) in the middle ear is a rare and potentially serious vascular anomaly. Symptoms and signs of aberrant internal carotid artery are often non-specific, therefore radiographic investigation with the combination of CT scan and MRA is required for the diagnosis. It is also essential to inform physicians to avoid disastrous consequences.
