Case Report: Mycotic common carotid artery pseudoaneurysm in a child. A case report. [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
Extracranial carotid artery aneurysms in children are extremely rare, nevertheless associated with a great potential of thromboembolic episodes and rupture especially those with mycotic origin. The surgical treatment is very challenging, and there is still a controversy concerning revascularisation...
