Stent-Graft Repair of Common Carotid Pseudoaneurysms in Behcet's Syndrome

Abstract

We report on a patient with Behcet's syndrome who had two pseudoaneurysms at the junction of a saphenous vein graft and the native common carotid artery. He had experienced graft interposition due to the aneurysm rupture, but the saphenous vein was interpositioned due to the graft reobstruction. We successfully repaired the pseudoaneurysms with stent-graft.
