Abstract

Blunt carotid injury

Case Report

Liver injury

Traumatic hemiplegia

• Early detection and high susception of blunted carotid injury (BCI) prevent deterioration and promote better prognosis. • BCI associated with polytraumatic injuries can be managed non-operatively with acceptable outcome. • The use of dual antiplatelet therapy in anticoagulant contraindicated patients is essential to prevent stent-related thrombosis.
