Internal carotid pseudoaneurysm associated with tortuosity after tonsillectomy: a case report.

Eleftherios S Xenos1, Nathan Orr, Joseph Valentino.   

Abstract

We present a patient who was found to have an internal carotid pseudoaneurysm 3 years after tonsillectomy and chemoradiation for tonsillar cancer. Ha also had severe tortuosity of both internal carotid arteries. The lesion was in an anatomically challenging location, but an endoluminal approach was not feasible because of the extreme tortuosity. He underwent open repair with resection of the pseudoaneurysm and direct anastomosis with good results.
