The case described here is unusual, because it concerns a pseudoaneurysm of the common carotid artery (before truncal bifurcation), a rarely observed localization. Moreover, this pathological condition was an unexpected event, being the uncommon result of a minor blunt trauma (whiplash trauma in a car crash).
Whiplash Injury. Quick acceleration and deceleration of the body such as what you would experience during a motor vehicle accident can damage the spine. This can cause the left side of the neck to become stiff along with arm and shoulder pain, headache, fatigue, back pain, dizziness and disturbed sleep.
