Abstract
A 66-year-old patient with nasopharyngeal cancer who had received chemotherapy and radiation therapy visited our emergency center with severe epistaxis. The patient was followed up with internal carotid artery trapping after a pseudoaneurysm was revealed in computed tomography angiography. Cerebrospinal fluid leakage was noted during follow-up observation after the intervention. This case presents various neurosurgical complications that can occur in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer.
