Reborn of Internal-External Carotid Artery Transposition as a Repair Method for Shotgun Injury of Neck Zone 2

A 26-year-old male presented to the emergency center having been shot in the neck. Multislice computed tomography angiography revealed injury of the right internal carotid artery at level of the carotid bifurcation with hematoma and injury of right internal jugular vein. Under general anesthesia, transposition of internal carotid artery to external carotid artery, with ligation of internal jugular vein, was successfully performed. This case emphasizes the value of “old fashion” surgical treatment in modern endovascular age.
