Extracranial carotid artery aneurysms are uncommon, life-threatening diseases typically resulting from atherosclerosis. In this case report, a 32-year-old male patient with a bilateral carotid artery aneurysm is presented. After the aneurysmectomy, Dacron graft interposition was applied to the right carotid artery. It was attempted to manage the complications that developed in the postoperative period. These patients require a more detailed and multidisciplinary approach, both intraoperatively and postoperatively.
