Internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms involving the sphenoid sinus are uncommon, and their optimal treatment remains debated. We report the case of a patient presenting with recurrent epistaxis due to a bleeding cavernous ICA aneurysm. We suggest a combined endovascular and endoscopic approach when ICA occlusion may not be performed.

Abstract
Internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms involving the sphenoid sinus are uncommon, and their optimal treatment remains debated. We report the case of a patient presenting with recurrent epistaxis due to a bleeding cavernous ICA aneurysm. We suggest a combined endovascular and endoscopic approach when ICA occlusion may not be performed.File in questo prodotto:
