%X Pseudoaneurysm of the internal carotid artery following otogenic infection is rare but leads to catastrophic outcomes. In our case series, we present two patients with ICA pseudoaneurysm complicated by malignant otitis externa, and we emphasise the importance of timely diagnosis and management to prevent fatal outcomes. A pseudoaneurysm should be ruled out in a patient with malignant otitis externa presenting with recurrent epistaxis or ear bleed.
