“…The treatment of choice should be fitted to every patient and needs. Surgical options embody ligation, extracranial to intracranial bypasses (which has been left as meer anecdotal or in life threatening scenarios) 10,11 , resection and reconstruction using autologous or prosthetic grafts for tortuous ECAA aneurysms allow resection and a primary end-to-end anastomosis 1,4,8,12 . Endovascular therapy may be advantageous for selected cases 8,9 , reducing cranial nerve injuries and periprocedural complications, although due to the anatomical features of the aneurysms, open surgery still remains to be the standard procedure 1,3,13 .…”

Background: Aneurysms of the internal carotid artery (ICA) are a rare finding, only accounting for 0.4-4% of all peripheral aneurysm and 1% of all carotid diseases. Objective: To evaluate the clinical findings of a carotid aneurysm, considering the patient's background. Methods: A 54-year-old woman intense yoga practitioner presented with 3 weeks development of a pulsatile mass on the right side of the neck. No history of intravenous catheters, traumatism, or local infections. Ultrasound images revealed a 1.6 cm patent saccular aneurysm ICA dependent. During surgery, visualization of the aneurysm was seen without sign of endothelial damage. Results: Patient underwent elective resection with primary repair and was discharged 2-day postoperatively. Follow-ups revealed complete resolution of the symptoms with intraoperative tissue samples coming back without abnormalities. Conclusions: It is of utmost importance to inquire into the patient's background and perspective in being able to find an etiological case in rare findings.
