Giant carotid pseudoaneurysm amenable to pipeline stenting in a patient with Ehlers-Danlos type IV.

Background: Ehlers-Danlos type IV primarily affects collagen synthesis in the vasculature, increasing the risk of these patients to have dissection and pseudoaneurysm formation. Due to friable vessels, antiplatelet or anticoagulation has been the treatment of choice. However, newer intravascular surgical devices may be promising for future management.
