Abstract

          A 40 year old man presented with neck mass with pain. Two months ago he was impacted by a piece of wood. Upon examination, a 3 cm. diameter mass was found on the right side of his neck. The mass was excised and found to be a ruptured pseudoaneurysm of the carotid artery. After exploration of the neck and resected, the artery was reconstructed by vascular graft interposition. The temporary shunt was applied to maintain cerebral perfusion during operation. The patient had no postoperative neurologic deficit and was discharged 7 days later.
