Carotid web is a rare intraluminal parietal protrusion in the carotid artery. This vascular anomaly mostly occurs at the bifurcation causing turbulent flow, and is responsible of thrombi formation associated with embolic ischemic events. We report the case of a 35-year-old woman, with no medical history, who presented a recurrent middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion within twelve hours caused by a carotid bulb web. Although considered as a rare entity, carotid web is associated with the risk of recurrent strokes in the MCA territory and especially in the absence of the typically recognized risk factors. The key imaging is the CT angiography that shows the web, the cerebral artery occlusion, and the outcome appreciation. Therapeutic strategy associates antithrombotic treatment and operative management with stenting of the carotid web or endarterectomy.
