This article describes the aberrant course of the internal carotid artery (ICA) through the middle ear as an extremely rare vascular anomaly. On the basis of a case report, the findings of magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography imaging, and especially color-coded duplex sonography are presented. The diagnosis of an aberrant ICA is important to avoid severe surgical complications of a retrotympanic mass as well as unnecessary diagnostic or therapeutic approaches in expectation of a stroke.
本文将颈内动脉（ICA）经中耳的异常走行描述为一种极其罕见的血管异常。基于一例病例报告，展示了磁共振成像、计算机断层扫描成像，尤其是彩色编码双功能超声检查的结果。ICA走行异常的诊断对于避免鼓室后肿物的严重手术并发症以及因预期中风而采取的不必要的诊断或治疗方法很重要。
