We report a 37-year-old healthy male who developed left-sided neck pain following rigorous weight training. The pain was followed by development of a neck lump which was diagnosed as a left carotid bulb pseudoaneurysm with a partial thrombus in the lumen. The patient successfully underwent rent repair of the left common carotid artery wall at the level of its bifurcation and removal of thrombus under general anesthesia with complete recovery.
