An Aberrant Internal Carotid Artery Mimicking a Pharyngeal Mass: A Rare Cause of Dysphagia
ABSTRACT Aberrant course of the internal carotid artery (ICA) within the pharyngeal wall is an uncommon vascular anomaly that can present with symptoms mimicking structural or neoplastic lesions. Recognition of this variation is critical to avoid catastrophic complications during diagnostic or therapeutic interventions.
