Management and outcome after internal carotid artery laceration during surgery of the paranasal sinuses

Abstract: We report two cases of ICA lacerations that occurred during routine endoscopic sinus surgery. Both patients were successfully treated by employing neuroradiological procedures including balloon and/or coil occlusion of various portions of the cavernous ICA. According to the literature the outcome depends on the presence or absence of vascular anomalies or aneurysm of the ICA with a very poor prognosis in cases of laceration of a pre-existing and unrecognized aneurysm.

“…1 There is no standard protocol for the management of CAI and at present nasal packing is the recommended form of management for this potentially catastrophic situation. [1][2][3] A number of packing materials have been described, including muslin gauze, fibrin glue, gel foam, and oxidized cellulose packing, as well as thrombin gelatin matrix. 1 However, packing has the potential for morbidity because "overpacking" may compromise blood flow and place important neurovascular structures at risk, resulting in poor perfusion and ischemia.…”

“…Nasal packing is therefore advocated over other management techniques. [1][2][3] "Overpacking" can, however, place important neurovascular structures at risk, so it is not without its own complications. 4 Attention has been turned more recently to alternatives in management.…”

“…In some patients this bone is dehiscent and the artery may get injured. In the presence of profuse bleeding, application of tight packing and compression of the common carotid artery in the neck is recommended, whereas immediate neurosurgical consultation is obtained to determine the need for endovascular treatment [23,24]. Postoperatively, computerized tomography imaging should be obtained while monitoring vitals signs for sudden changes that may indicate intracranial hemorrhage.…”
