Endovascular repair of a carotid pseudoaneurysm with Fluency Plus stent graft implantation.
We describe the case of a 76-year-old male with a pseudoaneurysm of the left common carotid artery that developed 7 months following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and was treated by stent graft implantation, which may represent a valid alternative to surgical repair for the treatment of post-CEA pseudoaneurysm.
