Abstract
Objective: Arterial manifestations of Behcet’s disease are challenging and can lead to fatal complications. One of the causes of carotid aneurysm is Behcet’s disease. Extracranial internal carotid artery aneurysms are rare. This aneurysm is rare but important because it is associated with a high risk of neur thromboembolic events, cranial nerve damage, and rupture. Method: We describe a 19-year-old man with a history of Behcet’s disease who presented with a gradual enlargement of the right neck mass with shortness of breath when he is supine. Result: This report examines the challenges of treating carotid aneurysms by spreading to the mediastinum in a patient with Behcet’s disease. Conclusion: It is important to pay attention to the need for awake intubation by expanding to the mediastinum.
