Iatrogenic internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm as a complication of myryngotomy in 6-years-old boy
Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2012, Vol 66, Issue 5
Abstract
The aberrant internal carotid artery (ICA) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly. Misdiag-nosed may result in life threatening complications during middle ear surgery. Authors present a case of a 6-year old boy in whom ventilation tube insertion was complicated by ICA pseudo-aneurysm formation. Symptoms, diagnosis and management of ICA pseudo--aneurysm are discussed.
