Unilateral agenesis of the internal carotid artery.
Unilateral agenesis of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is an extremely rare anomaly. Diagnosis is often incidental in a radiological examination. Recognition of this anomaly has important clinical implications because other life-threatening conditions can be associated and it must be taken into account when planning carotid surgery. We report a case of 64-year-old man with agenesis of the ICA.
متن کاملBilateral Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis
A72-year-old manpresented with paroxysmal and transient involuntary movements, or "limb shaking". The attacks occurred alternately from one side of the body to the other and ceased spontaneously. Surface EMG study showed synchronous grouping discharges in multiple limb muscles, being compatible with hemiballism-hemichorea. Cerebral angiography demonstrated marked stenosis of the bilateral inter...

Agenesis of Bilateral Internal Carotid Arteries in the PHACE Syndrome We read with interest the paper by Weon et al, in which they described the case of a 14-year-old girl with a complex association of agenesis of the bilateral internal carotid arteries with transcranial collaterals from the external carotid artery, agenesis of the vertebrobasilar system, hypoplasia of the right cerebellar hemi...
متن کاملBilateral hypoplasia of the internal carotid artery
Agenesis and hypoplasia of the internal carotid artery (ICA) are rare congenital anomalies, occurring in less than 0.01% of the population. We report a rare case of bilateral hypoplasia of the ICA in a patient with post-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. We describe the embryological development of the cerebral vasculature and present a review of literature.
متن کاملCongenital Absence (agenesis) of the Internal Carotid Artery
Agenesis of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is a rare congenital anomaly. Most of the patients are asymptomatic and it is usually discovered incidentally by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). While collateral blood flow may allow these patients to remain asymptomatic, there is close association of the intra-cranial aneurysms and subarachnoid hemorrhage with ICA agen...
