Multiple gunshot carotico-jugular fistulas

Abstract

The development of post-traumatic fistula between the carotid artery and jugular vein is an extremely rare clinical condition. The authors present a 28-year-old patient, who sustained a gunshot injury to the right side of the neck 6 years ago, with undiagnosed contralateral carotico-jugular fistula.
