[Post-traumatic intracavernous aneurysms. 2 cases].
The authors describe two cases of post-traumatic aneurysms of the intracavernous carotid artery. They analyze the difficulties they have encountered during direct approach. Direct cure was impossible for the first patient because of the arterial wall dilaceration. In the second case, the aneurysm has been treated upon by stitching. A second operation with injection of biological glue into the cavernous sinus was required because of the secondary formation of a carotido-cavernous fistula in front of a second metal fragment.
