ABSTRACT
Congenital absence of the bilateral internal carotid arteries (ICA) is a very rare occurrence. Recognition of this rare anomaly is important, when considering intracranial endovascular interventions in the event of thromboembolic events with revascularization, transsphenoidal surgery, and the surveillance and detection of associated cerebral aneurysms. We report a case of a 25-year-old man who presented with headache since 2 years ago, and was incidentally discovered to have a congenital bilateral absence of ICAs.
