Massive epistaxis resulting from an intracavernous internal carotid artery traumatic pseudoaneurysm: complete resolution with overlapping uncovered stents. Acta Neurochir (Wien). 2009 Dec;151(12):1681-4. doi: 10.1007/s00701-009-0294-5.

A pseudoaneurysm of the intracavernous carotid artery may rupture into the cavernous sinus, causing life-threatening epistaxis. We report a case of intracavernous traumatic psedoaneurysm presenting with delayed massive epistaxis. The endovascular treatment with overlapping self-expanding stents achieved complete exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm with preservation of the intracavernous carotid artery.engjournal article0942-0940https://doi.org/10.1007/s00701-009-0294-5https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00701-009-0294-5#citeasrestricted access616.133.33-007.64AneurysmAngiologyCarotid artery diseaseEmbolismTrauma SurgeryVascular SurgeryCiencias Biomédicas32 Ciencias Médicas
