Common carotid artery pseudoaneurysm secondary to Mycobacterium tuberculosis treated with resection and reconstruction with saphenous vein graft

Extracranial carotid artery aneurysms secondary to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection are exceedingly rare. Despite an uncommon location and offending pathogen, the treatment paradigm follows that of all mycotic aneurysms. We report the case of a right common carotid artery pseudoaneurysm caused b...
