    Author: Saim L, Rejab E, Hamzah M, Sakijan S, Selvapragasam T.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Surg; 1993 Nov; 63(11):906-10. PubMed ID: 8216074.
    Abstract:
    Intracavernous carotid artery aneurysm following head injury is a rare occurrence. Two such cases presenting with delayed but massive and repeated epistaxis are reported and the literature reviewed. The first case required a trapping procedure while the second case had only cervical carotid ligation to control the bleeding. Both resulted in no neurological sequelae.
