Abstract
Extracranial carotid aneurysm due to Behçet disease is extremely rare. To our knowledge, this complication has been previously reported in only 12 cases. We report two new cases of extracranial carotid aneurysm in Behçet disease and discuss the clinical features, therapeutic modalities, and postoperative complications of these uncommon lesions.
