摘要：

This case report describes post-tracheostomy bleeding resulting from a rare occurrence of an aberrant course of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA), which arose directly from the common carotid artery (CCA). The patient, a 68-year-old male with severe COVID-19 complications, had undergone a tracheostomy due to prolonged intubation. Postoperatively, significant bleeding occurred from the tracheostomy site. Surgical exploration revealed the aberrant origin of the ITA. This case highlights the potential risks associated with aberrant vascular anatomy in the neck region.
