説明

A 62-year-old man presented with rupture of a pseudoaneurysm of the left common carotid artery (CCA) that was induced after radiation therapy and neck surgery. The initial treatment was an endovascular procedure to obliterate the aneurysm with coils, and a covered stent was placed in the parent artery. However, the patient presented with subsequent coil migration, wound infection, and left CCA stenosis. Direct surgical procedures were then performed, including resection of the pseudoaneurysm with coils and stent; replacement of the carotid artery with a saphenous vein graft; and operative wound reinforcement with a pedicle flap. Endovascular treatments may be chosen for vascular diseases after irradiation, because of the low risk of wound infection and fragility of the vessels, but the long-term outcomes of intravascular treatments are still unclear. In direct surgery, dissection of the adhesive tissue and adequate wound healing are difficult. Musculocutaneous flaps with vascular pedicles can achieve good results.<br>
