Аннотация
Common carotid pseudoaneurysms are very rare. The authors report a case of a 18-year-old patient with 11 cm large posttraumatic pseudoaneurysm of the right common carotid artery caused by a gunshot in the neck. The patient also had a right hemiplegia, secondary to the left sylvian artery stroke and aphasia. A surgical repair was undertaken with an approach including a total sternotomy. The aneurysm was excluded and a saphenous vein patch was used to repair the 2-cm defect on the arterial wall. The postoperative period was uneventful. This is probably the largest carotid artery aneurysm ever described. The potential hazards of an aneurysm of the common carotid artery indicate that surgical treatment is warranted particularly in a patient with a past history of controlateral stroke.
