Hypoplastic internal carotid artery, renal artery stenosis, vertebral fusion anomaly: rare association-a case report

A Case Report of Renal Artery Variation

Awareness of the presence of the accessory renal artery in kidney transplant, treatment of renal artery stenosis, clinical assessment of renal vascular hypertension, radiology and angiography interventions is very helpful. In 30% of cases the accessory renal artery is separated from the abdominal aorta and in most cases, this artery along with the main artery entered to the kidney through t...

Carotid angioplasty and stenting in a patient with high grade stenosis of Internal Carotid Artery associated with both vertebral arteries and contralateral carotid occlusion

Severe internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis is a common cause of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in middle-aged patients. Contralateral carotid occlusion (CCO) in patients with severe ICA stenosis is associated with high risk of CVA. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is associated with more complications in patients with CCO than those without CCO. In this study, we present the case of a 61-year-ol...

A Penetrating Pellet Jeopardizing Internal Carotid Artery

Intracranial internal carotid artery stenosis.

The advent of EC/IC Bypass surgery has focused attention on selected patients who might benefit from this innovative procedure. There is a poverty of natural history data pertaining to all such lesions. Two centres (Memphis, Tennessee and London, Ontario) pooled their resources to carry out a retrospective review of 58 patients with angiographically-proven intracranial internal carotid artery s...

Bilateral 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...
