Abstract EN
Mycotic pseudoaneurysms of the extracranial carotid artery are rare and need surgical treatment to prevent rupture or embolization.
We treated a case of a carotid bifurcation pseudoaneurysm secondary to infection caused by Staphylococcus epidermidis.
We successfully treated it using a catheter balloon to obtain carotid bifurcation’s control and replacing the carotid bifurcation with a vein graft.
Management involves aneurysmectomy associated with antibiotic therapy and restoration of arterial continuity.
