摘要:
Inflammatory carotid pseudotumor is a rare differential of a unilateral neck swelling in the carotid triangle. A 48-year-old man presented with a firm non-tender gradually progressive left neck swelling for five months. Computed tomography angiogram revealed a mass encasing the common carotid. Patient underwent excision; histopathology was reported as inflammatory pseudotumor. Patient had a recurrence after eight months. Steroids were prescribed with which the swelling resolved, patient remained recurrence free at two-year follow-up.
