- Abstract
The injury to the cavernous portion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) during endonasal sinus surgery is a potentially fatal complication, which can be prevented by systematic analysis of preoperative CT imaging in order to exclude vascular malformations. Immediate management is critical and requires interdisciplinary cooperation between the otolaryngologist and interventional neuroradiologist.
