Progressive thrombosed pseudoaneurysm following transarterial balloon embolization in traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula: From silent lesion to symptomatic mass
This case highlights the importance of long-term surveillance following balloon embolization for TCCF. Delayed pseudoaneurysm growth may lead to significant neurological deficits years after initial treatment. Early recognition and appropriate endovascular intervention are essential to prevent irreversible complications and optimize patient outcomes.
