Carotid artery aneurysms are rare. Nurses need an awareness of these lesions in order to conduct appropriate neurological and cardiovascular assessments, provide appropriate preoperative and postoperative interventions and educate patients and their families. Understanding carotid artery aneurysms enables the nurse to provide quality nursing care to this patient population.
