Calcification of the carotid siphon.
CALCIFICATION of the internal carotid artery in the region of the cavernous sinus is an extremely common radiologic finding.' Although it is the only readily available laboratory criterion of cerebrovascular disease its significance has never been determined by combined clinical, radiologic, and pathologic studies. Whether the arterial changes in this region, which we shall refer to as the siph...
متن کاملAngiographic correlation of CT calcification in the carotid siphon.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Calcification in the coronary arteries has been correlated with significant vessel stenosis. The predictive value of calcification within the carotid siphon has not been characterized; however, stenosis in the carotid siphon is potentially important in determining management of patients with ipsilateral carotid bifurcation stenosis. The purpose of this study was to determ...
متن کاملPeriarteritic lesions of the carotid siphon with the clinical features of a carotid infraclinoidal aneurysm.
The clinical diagnosis of subclinoid carotid aneurysms is generally based on the characteristic association of two features: (a) pain in the first division of the trigeminal nerve; and (b) progressive paralysis, partial or total, of the oculomotor nerve and occasionally of the fourth, sixth, and the fifth cranial nerves. Although the symptomatic association just described is highly characterist...
متن کاملPrognosis of carotid siphon stenosis.
Prognosis of Carotid Siphon Stenosis To the Editor: In their interesting paper, Wechsler et al confirmed that siphon stenosis carries a poor prognosis for life, as one-third of their patients were dead at the end of a 51-month follow-up. In a previous study involving 15 patients with siphon stenosis of > 30% (without proximal atherosclerosis of equal or greater severity), we also found a high m...
