A 34-year-old man with medical history of familial deafness presented to the emergency department for an acute left cervicalgia and painful jaw for one week. He reported a context of recent physical effort because of house moving. He had already performed a cervical echography, which showed a thickening of the wall of the left common carotid artery (panel A) without disturbance of the vascular flow on Doppler (panel B). At presentation, vital parameters were normal with symmetrical blood pressure measurement, and no fever.
