Résumé
Extracranial carotid false aneurysms are rare but serious because of the high risk of rupture and thromboembolic ischemic strokes. Although hemodynamic and hormonal physiological changes in pregnant women may favor arterial rupture and the development of false aneurysms, only one case of extracranial carotid false aneurysm related to pregnancy has been reported in the literature. Surgical repair is still the treatment of choice of these lesions. We report a case of spontaneous false aneurysm of the extracranial internal carotid artery occurring at the end of pregnancy. The surgical procedure consisted in resection of the false aneurysm with interposition of a prosthetic graft. The follow-up was uneventful.
