[Bilateral cervical internal carotid artery aneurysms (author's transl)].

Aneurysms of the cervical internal carotid artery are not rare lesions although they often remain symptomless. The authors describe the case of an eighteen-year-old boy presenting bilateral cervical internal carotid artery aneurysms of probable traumatic origin and treated conservatively. Etiology, pathogenesis, difficulties in diagnosis and choice of treatment are discussed.
