[Management of carotid-jugular fistula: Case report and review of the literature].

We report here the management of an acquired left carotid-jugular fistula in a 29-year-old man. This patient was referred to us for a ballistic wound of the left cheek evolving since one month with the diagnosis of a carotid pseudo-aneurysm discovered on Doppler ultrasound. The clinical presentation was marked by cervical thrill in favor of an arteriovenous fistula confirmed by computed tomography angiography.

[Surgical treatment of a ruptured aneurysm of the left common iliac artery in a patient with miliary tuberculosis].

Tuberculous aneurysms of the common iliac artery are rare. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature. We report a new case in a 47-year-old man admitted for abdominal pain and persistent fever.

[Dramatic evolution of a bilateral femoral artery aneurysm in a 16-year-old girl].

Femoral artery aneurysm is a rare entity among the vascular complications of Takayasu's disease. It is sometimes characterized by the risk of serious local complications with hemorrhagic or ischemic event, as well as by a big therapeutic handling difficulty. We report a case of bilateral femoral artery aneurysm in a 16-year-old girl having a dramatic evolution turn after surgical treatment and irreversible limb ischemia.

[Management of traumatic and iatrogenic arterial pseudoaneurysms in a tropical environment].

A false aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm (PA) is the formation of a pulsatile and encapsulated hematoma in communication with the lumen of a perforated artery. Its origin is different but most cases are associated with a traumatic event. Currently, the referenced treatment is endovascular surgery but it is not feasible for the majority of vascular surgeons working in a tropical environment.
