  • Title: Aneurysm of the internal carotid artery presenting as a parapharyngeal mass.
    Author: Dhingra PL, Verma SK, Saxena S.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 1988 Jul; 102(7):654-5. PubMed ID: 3411230.
    Abstract:
    A case of saccular aneurysm of the internal carotid artery presenting as a parapharyngeal mass is being reported because of its rarity and the paucity of literature on the subject. Welling et al. (1983) evaluated 1118 aneurysms of the peripheral arteries seen over a 30-year period. Forty-one of these arose from the extracranial carotid system, only four of them being saccular aneurysms of the internal carotid artery. None of them presented with a parapharyngeal mass.
