✦ Synopsis

A 3 mm pellet, shot into the neck of a 13 year old boy, migrated into the common carotid artery and lodged in the infraclinoid internal carotid artery. The case illustrates an unusual intravascular migration of a foreign body. The benign clinical course, radiological evaluation, and rationale for expectant management of such low velocity missle injuries is discussed.

However, this strategy appears to involve the potential risk of distal embolization, which may lead to disability and death. Here, the
