Management of the carotid artery involved with metastatic squamous cell carcinoma continues to be a topic of much discussion. Early reports, for the most part, focused on the sequel of ligation and the development of various tests to predict patient tolerance for the procedure. More recent alternatives have described resection reconstruction in multistage procedures. By using immediate reconstruction with autogenous arterial grafting, carotid artery resection can be accomplished in patients with radiation failure in a single stage. This technique can be used without the addition of myocutaneous flaps, controlled fistulas, or intracranial surgery advocated for usage with alternative techniques. Patients and Methods: Immediate reconstruction after resection of the carotid artery with superficial femoral arterial graft is described.
