BACKGROUND: Revascularization of the occluded internal carotid artery (ICA) through the vasa vasorum is exceedingly rare. Several previous studies hypothesized that the expansion of the vasa vasorum is associated with neovascularization related to the progression of atherosclerosis or plaque. The occurrence of reconstitution of the ICA through the vasa vasorum in traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula (TCCF) has rarely been reported.
CASE DESCRIPTION: We described an extremely rare case of a 64-year-old woman who developed reconstitution of the occluded ICA through hypertrophied vasa vasorum supplying recurrent TCCF previously treated by ligation of the internal and external carotid arteries. Usual endovascular treatment may be challenging for this patient due to inaccessible route from the affected ICA through multiple small vessels. The patient was successfully treated with trapping procedure and obliteration the fistula using combined surgical and endovascular treatment.
CONCLUSION: We speculated that the hypertrophied vasa vasorum in TCCF may cause by a sequela of previous arterial injury, spontaneous recanalization of the occluded artery by the formation of vasa vasorum, and/or hypertrophy of the vasa vasorum due to the high flow of the fistula.
