Description
Mayuko Otomo and five co-authors report a rare case: a false bulge in a blood vessel that showed up fifty years after bypass surgery on neck arteries. Their case report was published in twenty twenty-five, and the long gap stands out because such bulges most often form within a year or two of surgery.
The patient was a seventy-six-year-old woman with growing swelling in her neck. Scans showed the bulge, a blocked graft, and blood reaching it through small side paths. Surgeons planned to tie off one artery junction, but in the operating room they found tiny vessels feeding the bulge. They trapped and removed it by tying those small vessels. The case warns that this late harm, though rare, can still occur.
