摘要

We present a case of extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm, which presented as an inflammatory submandibular swelling in the upper part of the right side of the neck. The lack of frank pulsatility and signs of inflammation though was a bit confusing, the Doppler and CT angiogram clinched the diagnosis. We were able to surgically resect and reform the ICA using the native vessel itself, which is an unusual technique, which we thought was worth presenting.
