Popis: We report here the management of an acquired left carotid-jugular fistula in a 29-year-old man. This patient was referred to us for a ballistic wound of the left cheek evolving since one month with the diagnosis of a carotid pseudo-aneurysm discovered on Doppler ultrasound. The clinical presentation was marked by cervical thrill in favor of an arteriovenous fistula confirmed by computed tomography angiography. The surgical exploration by cervicotomy revealed a communication between common carotid artery and internal jugular vein that were repaired using a saphenous vein patch and a lateral suture respectively without complication. The control at five months found an asymptomatic patient with good patency of the repaired vessels.
