| Popis: | In the current case report we present a novel case of a successful coil embolization of the left internal carotid artery aneurysm. The patient presented with neck pain and a palpable pulsating tumor and was admitted to the vascular surgery clinic where an angio-CT scan of the neck was performed. Angio-CT revealed a left internal carotid artery aneurysm with a narrow neck. The patient was admitted to the department of vascular surgery where she was enrolled into endovascular coil embolization. After the procedure, control angiography showed complete embolization of the aneurysm. Three months following the procedure, doppler ultrasonography of the carotid arteries showed no demonstrable flow into the aneurysm. Six months following the procedure, angio-CT confirmed complete aneurysm thrombosis. Based on this case, endovascular coil embolization of the carotid artery aneurysms is a safe and effective method of treatment. |
