Carotid rete mirabile associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
A 47-year-old man presented with carotid rete mirabile manifesting as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Computed tomography showed SAH, and angiography disclosed an abnormal vascular network around the petrous and cavernous portions of the internal carotid artery. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with technetium-99m methyl cysteinate dimer revealed reduced regional cerebral blood...

متن کاملCompressibility of the carotid artery in patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
The arterial wall has generally been considered as noncompressible in in vitro studies. However, compressibility of the arterial wall (CAW) has never been studied in vivo in humans. Large interstitial proteoglycans play a major role in sustaining the compression generated by pulsatile forces. The aims of the present study were to develop an experimental methodology for the assessment of CAW in ...
متن کاملPseudoxanthoma elasticum
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a genetic metabolic disease with autosomal recessive inheritance caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene. The lack of functional ABCC6 protein leads to ectopic mineralization that is most apparent in the elastic tissues of the skin, eyes and blood vessels. The clinical prevalence of PXE has been estimated at between 1 per 100,000 and 1 per 25,000, with slight fem...
