case_images: Internal Carotid Artery (ICA) with a longitudinal diameter of 28mm and transversal diameters of 25,1mm x 25mm (Figure 1), the left carotid axis appeared free from calcific or stenotic plaque. In addition no obstructive or aneurysmal lesions of the contralateral carotid artery were detected.

case_images: SCM muscle (Figure 2). Simple proximal and distal arterial clamping after systemic administration of heparin (at 100 IU/kg body weight) was used during aneurysm repair.

case_images: After aneurysmectomy end-to-end anastomosis of the ICA was performed because the distal carotid artery was significantly elongated and was of sufficient length (Figure 3).
