Traumatic aneurysm of the internal carotid artery (ICA) occurs rarely, with an approximate incidence of 0.15% and 0.40% of total intracranial aneurysms. An interesting case of delayed presentation of pseudoaneurysm of the left ICA in a 61-year-old patient is reported here, who came to us for evaluation of blindness, proptosis, and ophthalmoparesis. This potentially life-threatening condition was successfully managed using coil embolization after complete evaluation and investigations.
