ABSTRACT
Pseudoaneurysm is the formation of a sac due to damage in the continuity of the arterial wall. Iatrogenic carotid artery aneurysm is a rare, life-threatening complication following fine needle aspiration (FNA). We are presenting here a case of pseudoaneurysm following FNA with a literature review.

A girl in her middle childhood presented to the outpatient department (OPD) with a congenital melanocytic naevi (CMN) of the right nasal alar lobule. Her parents had aesthetic concerns and expressed their desire to get the lesion removed. The full-thickness excision of CMN was performed with the reconstruction of the defect using the nasolabial and dorsal nasal advancement flap with conchal cartilage to shape the contour of the ala.
