Abstract
Penetrating trauma to neck resulting in arteriovenous (AV) fistula and aneurysms involving the carotid system are uncommon injuries with life-threatening consequences. We report here a case of a young factory worker who developed a traumatic AV fistula with false aneurysm, with however, no other complications. He was successfully operated when he presented to us two months after the injury and is doing well in follow-up.
