Abstract
SILVESTRE, Luís et al. Degenerative carotid aneurysm presented with disphagia. Angiol Cir Vasc [online]. 2010, vol.6, n.4, pp.202-206. ISSN 1646-706X.
Atherosclerotic extracranial internal carotid aneurysms are a rare entity and have diverse etiologies. Comprehensive information about these lesions is difficult to obtain and has resulted from the publication of small series and isolated clinical reports. The authors report the case of an atherosclerotic carotid aneurysm submitted to surgical treatment and discuss the clinical presentation and surgical strategy.
Keywords : Atherosclerotic extracranial carotid aneurysm.
