Vasc Endovascular Surg. 2021 Aug;55(6):627-630. doi: 10.1177/1538574421992935. Epub 2021 Mar 11.

Abstract

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.

Keywords: carotid artery; carotid endarterectomy; carotid stenosis; pseudoaneurysm; stents.
