Reappraisal of flow velocity ratio in common carotid artery to predict hemodynamic change in carotid stenosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Various Doppler criteria have been used to predict hemodynamically significant carotid stenosis. This study was performed to elucidate whether hemodynamically significant stenosis can be predicted indirectly by the blood flow velocity in the common carotid artery (CCA) measured with duplex ultrasonography in patients with unilateral stenosis of internal carotid artery (IC...
متن کاملReport of a Variation of the Right Common Carotid Artery
Carotid artery is the most important artery that carries the major part of the blood supply to the head and neck. The branching of the common carotid artery usually occurs at the upper edge of the thyroid cartilage. The placement of carotid sinus has also increased its importance in this area. Considering the clinical importance of knowledge about carotid artery variations, this case is reporte...
متن کاملLow Common Carotid Artery Systolic Occlusion Pressure and Symptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis Are Associated with Development of Neurologic Intolerance during Proximal Protected Carotid Artery Stenting
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Neurologic intolerance (NI) is defined as the occurrence of neurological symptoms during carotid artery stenting (CAS). Because NI is inevitable problem, it may be helpful to anticipate its occurrence. So, we studied factors associated with NI during proximal protected CAS. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed all consecutive patients underwent proximal protected CAS ...
متن کامل[Gunshot trauma to the common carotid artery].
A case of gunshot trauma to the common carotid artery which presented with a juxtaclavicular pulsating hematoma is presented. After precise diagnosis was established by angiography, reconstruction by interposing and autologous saphenous vein graft was successful. Aspects of this highly lethal type of trauma include the need for close observation of the asymptomatic patient, indications for expl...
متن کاملCommon Carotid Artery Occlusion: A Case Series
Subjects and Methods. We analysed 5000 cerebrovascular ultrasound records. A total of 0.4% of the patients had common carotid artery occlusion (CCAO). Results. The mean age was 59.8 ± 14.2 years, and the male/female ratio was 2.33. The most frequent risk factors were hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and smoking. Right-sided and left-sided CCAO occurred in ...
