Cerebral Infarction Due to Carotid Occlusion Caused by Cervical Vagal Neurilemmoma
Background—We report a case of a 71-year-old woman with cerebral infarction due to occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) caused by a neck tumor. Case Description—In 1998, the patient complained of mild hoarseness, and a diagnostic workup showed a cervical mass that was considered a benign neck tumor. In September 2000, she developed right-sided weakness. Diffusion-weighted MRI showed a...

متن کاملCerebral infarction due to carotid occlusion and carbon monoxide exposure. I. Pathophysiological and neuropathological investigations.
Ligation of one common carotid artery and exposure to carbon monoxide has proved to be a reliable method of producing unilateral cerebral infarcts in the rat, allowing controlled experiments in any given sample size. Pathophysiological measurements in awake and narcotized rats has shown that, in contrast to hypoxic hypoxia, the carbon monoxide-induced functional anaemia (3000 ppm in room air) d...
متن کاملPathogenesis of cerebral infarction secondary to mechanical carotid artery occlusion.
Pathogenesis of Cerebral Infarction Secondary to Mechanical Carotid Artery Occlusion • The immediate postoperative cerebral complications of 65 carotid occlusions were evaluated. The occlusions were done in all but one case for intracranial saccular aneurysms and were performed by either direct ligation (quick type) or slow turning down of a Silverstone clamp or similar device (slow occlusion)....
متن کاملCerebral infarction caused by traumatic carotid artery dissection.
Traumatic carotid artery dissection, if not diagnosed and treated early, is a serious problem with permanent neurological deficit and a high mortality rate of up to 40%. We present a case with delayed diagnosis of traumatic carotid artery dissection in a 21-year-old female. While there were no ischemic infarct findings on the admission cerebral computerized tomography (CT), such findings were o...
