Pseudoaneurysm of the lingual artery as an unusual radiological finding of oropharyngeal carcinoma

Pseudoaneurysms of the lingual artery are an extremely rare entity and often are consequence of neck surgery, trauma or inflammation (e.g., due to chemoradiotherapy or odontogenic infection), and may cause life-threatening bleeding. To our knowledge, this is the first report of buccal bleeding secon...

description Pseudoaneurysms of the lingual artery are an extremely rare entity and often are consequence of neck surgery, trauma or inflammation (e.g., due to chemoradiotherapy or odontogenic infection), and may cause life-threatening bleeding. To our knowledge, this is the first report of buccal bleeding secondary to the presence of a previously undiagnosed oropharyngeal carcinoma with an associated lingual artery pseudoaneurysm.
