Spontaneous bilateral recanalization in bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion.
The authors report a young woman with bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion shown by carotid angiography. There was spontaneous bilateral recanalization demonstrated radiographically. The possible causes, e.g. the intake of oral contraceptive drugs, a spontaneous intimal dissection and other etiological features are discussed and the literature is reviewed.
متن کاملBilateral Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion Secondary to Closed Head Injuries.
Complications of basilar skull fracture, such as carotid cavernous fistulae, meningitis, cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhoea and otorrhoea, pneumatocele, and various cranial nerve disturbances, are well known (Gurdjian and Webster, 1958). In -addition, unilateral thrombosis of the internal carotid artery, both with and without basilar skull fracture, has frequently been reported after closed head a...
متن کاملBilateral 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...
متن کاملSpontaneous history of asymptomatic internal carotid occlusion.
Forty-nine patients with ICA occlusion, who presented without any neurological signs or symptoms, were prospectively followed for an average of 31.2 months. Eight patients (16%) suffered a stroke during follow-up, of which five were within the vascular territory of the occluded artery--5 patients (10%) developed TIAs 4 of which were ipsilateral to the occluded artery. Non-invasive vascular foll...
متن کاملSustained bilateral hemodynamic benefit of contralateral carotid endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to investigate whether in patients with a symptomatic internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion, endarterectomy of a severe stenosis of the contralateral carotid artery can establish long-term cerebral hemodynamic improvement. METHODS Nineteen patients were studied on average 1 month before and 6 months after contralateral carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Volume fl...
