[Traumatic rupture of the inferior thyroid artery].
We report a rare case of traumatic aneurysma of the inferior thyroid artery, which occurred after a minor life-threatening trauma. The lesion was diagnosed during an angiographical examination, performed because of hemodynamic instability of the patient. For therapy, the lesion was ligated and excised.
