Spontaneous dissection is a very rare occurrence in the pathology of the carotid artery. The case of a 40 year old male patient affected by dissection of the right carotid artery is described. The patient was admitted to Hospital but was not operated on since he showed progressive improvement of his symptoms under medical treatment and had a favourable outcome. The aetio-pathology and surgical indications of this rare condition is considered with extensive review of the literature on this subject.
