Abstract: Carotid artery injuries can cause bleeding, traumatic arteriovenous fistula, and pseudoaneurysm and can directly affect the blood supply or reflux to the brain. There are two types of carotid injury, penetrating carotid artery injury and blunt carotid artery injury, which are managed by different treatment options. Prompt treatment is imperative for carotid injuries. This paper summarizes the recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of carotid artery injuries.

Key words: Carotid Arteries, Arteriovenous Fistula, Embolization, Stents
