Abstract
Occipital artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare entity and few cases have been reported worldwide. Here, we are presenting a case of 32-year young lady with headache and a large swelling on the right side of the neck, without any history of trauma. Computed tomography (CT) angiogram revealed pseudoaneurysm of third part of the occipital artery. Excision of the pseudoaneurysm was performed with ligation of the occipital artery. © Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeons 2021.Entities:
