ABSTRACT

Emergency common carotid artery (CCA) ligation for bleeding control during carotid blowout syndrome with consecutive embolic stroke has been reported rarely. The patient is a 70-year-old man, who was suffering from acute profuse bleeding from the left superior thyroid artery into the piriformis sinus, which was not controlled other than by ligation of the left CCA. The cause of the bleeding remained unclear but was suspected to be related to his history of being positive for squamous cell carcinoma of the left hypopharynx with ari and postcricoid infiltration, diagnosed at age 58. Squamous cell carcinoma was treated with local resection, chemotherapy (docetaxel, carboplatin, and cetuximab), and radiotherapy. Neurological examination 4 days after CCA ligation revealed multiple subacute embolic strokes in the territory of the left middle cerebral artery, macroangiopathy of the extra and intracranial cerebral arteries, and hypoplasia of the left vertebral artery. This case demonstrates that carotid blowout syndrome may require CCA ligation when external carotid artery ligation is not possible, and that ligation can be complicated by an asymptomatic embolic stroke.
