Prognosis of carotid siphon stenosis.
Prognosis of Carotid Siphon Stenosis To the Editor: In their interesting paper, Wechsler et al confirmed that siphon stenosis carries a poor prognosis for life, as one-third of their patients were dead at the end of a 51-month follow-up. In a previous study involving 15 patients with siphon stenosis of > 30% (without proximal atherosclerosis of equal or greater severity), we also found a high m...

متن کاملThe prognosis of carotid siphon stenosis.
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical course and angiograms of 15 patients with carotid siphon stenosis of 50% or greater. Fourteen had less than 50% stenosis at the origin of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery, and one had a greater degree of stenosis but underwent endarterectomy after an initial angiogram. Angiograms were examined for evidence of hemodynamic abnormalities in addition ...
متن کاملCalcification of the carotid siphon.
CALCIFICATION of the internal carotid artery in the region of the cavernous sinus is an extremely common radiologic finding.' Although it is the only readily available laboratory criterion of cerebrovascular disease its significance has never been determined by combined clinical, radiologic, and pathologic studies. Whether the arterial changes in this region, which we shall refer to as the siph...
متن کاملIntracranial internal carotid artery stenosis: longterm prognosis.
Sixty-six patients with greater than or equal to 50% stenosis of an intracranial internal carotid artery (IICA) were followed-up for an average of 3.9 years. Eighteen patients (27.3%) experienced ischemic events; 8 (12.1%) had isolated TIA and 10 (15.2%) a stroke. The observed stroke rate for patients 35 years and older are 13 times the expected infarction rate for a normal population. Patient...
