Middle cerebral artery infarction: relationship of cavernous carotid artery calcification.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study was designed to determine whether calcification of the cavernous carotid artery (CCA) is associated with cerebrovascular infarcts in the same way that coronary artery calcification scores indicate myocardial infarctions. We sought to correlate the grade of CCA calcification with infarctions in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) distribution. METHODS Nonenhanced...
متن کاملAcute carotid stent thrombosis after carotid artery stenting.
BACKGROUND Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is a reasonable alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA), especially in patients at high risk for surgery. Carotid artery thrombosis of the treated segment is a rare, early but potentially devastating complication of this endovascular procedure. The aim of this article is to identify and critically review cases of acute stent thrombosis reported in th...
متن کاملCarotid artery and heart disease in subtypes of cerebral infarction.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of the study was to determine the prevalences of carotid artery disease and major and minor potential cardioembolic sources (1) in patients with cerebral infarction and age-matched control subjects and (2) in different clinical subtypes of cerebral infarction. METHODS A series of 166 consecutive patients with cerebral infarction and 59 control subjects was exami...
متن کاملVision Loss and RNFL Thinning after Internal Carotid Arter Occlusion and Middle Cerebral Artery Infarction
INTRODUCTION Ischaemic, traumatic or neoplasmic damage to the optic chiasm, optic tract or lateral geniculate nucleus affects the retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons, detected as reduced retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness around the optic nerve head. We report a case of vision loss and reduced RNFL thickness after internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion and middle cerebral artery (MCA) in...
