THE ABERRANT INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY: A RARE AND IMPORTANT ANATOMIC VARIANT

An aberrant internal carotid artery (ICA) is defined as a collateral pathway resulting from agenesis of the first embryonic segment of the ICA. Misdiagnosis can lead to unnecessary surgery and fatal complications.1 Clinically, they can present as pulsatile tinnitus, hearing loss, or a feeling of aural fullness, or they can be completely asymptomatic.2 We present the case of a 14-year-old female seen by her orthodontist for evaluation of malocclusion and popping of the right temporomandibular jaw (TMJ).
