Abstrakt: Carotid artery involvement by head and neck cancer is mostly considered as unresectable disease. Mostly, these cases are treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy. But when there is recurrent disease, choices are limited. Recent advances in vascular reconstruction and intervention radiology lead the way of addressing these cases with reconstruction or endovascular stenting. We tried to address this challenge in the present case. Endovascular stent provided the protection needed while dissecting over internal carotid artery. Such uncommonly performed techniques should be highlighted for further research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
