Endovascular treatment of a huge cervical carotid artery pseudoaneurysm with Wallgraft prosthesis.

Traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is a rare cause of epistaxis, which may be life-threatening if left untreated. We report the case of a massive epistaxis from left ICA pseudoaneurysm. Our patient was a 38 year-old man with the history of a severe traffic accident 13 years ago.

Intracranial brain abscess preceded by orbital cellulitis and sinusitis.

A 17-year-old boy with pyrexia, headache, and frequent drop attacks reported an acute onset of periorbital pain and swelling 1 month previously. Coronal computed tomography (CT) identified an ethmoid sinusitis, which was treated with functional endoscopic sinus surgery and intravenous gentamicin, prostaphylline, and metronidazone. Because of persistent symptoms, the patient returned 1 month later.
