Background: Carotid blowout syndrome (CBS) is a life-threatening emergency involving the rupture of the carotid arteries and/or branches, often following surgery and radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. Our case series aimed to describe airway management strategies, endovascular and surgical approaches, perioperative resuscitation management, and clinical outcomes in a cohort of patients with CBS at a tertiary referral academic health center.

Methods: We retrospectively identified patients presenting with CBS between 2017 and 2021.

The TNM staging system is the cornerstone of lung cancer classification, providing a framework for prognosis and treatment planning in a universal nomenclature. The 9th edition of the TNM classification, released by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) and went into effect in January 2025, introduces refinements to lymph node (N) staging. Lymph node staging is performed minimally invasively using bronchoscopy with endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS).

The association between ischemic stroke (IS) and malignancy is well established. Cancer-related strokes are predominantly embolic and classified as embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS). While malignancy-associated coagulopathy represents the primary pathogenic mechanism, neoplastic embolization of circulating tumor cells is another potential etiology, particularly in cases of cardiac and pulmonary malignancies.
