title: [Post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the common carotid artery].
abstract: The authors report their experience of one single case of carotid pseudo-aneurysm consequent on cervical trauma. The treatment required the substitution of the interested carotid segment by PTFE no. 6. This case is a rare event but the surgeon must always keep it in mind in the presence of cervical trauma.
