چکیده

Non-invasive ultrasonic imaging of the carotid bifurcation by duplex scanning and ultrasonic arteriography combined with pulsed Doppler spectrum analysis demonstrated patency of the external and internal carotid arteries distal to a common carotid occlusion in 3 patients. Common carotid occlusion is not invariably associated with thrombosis of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery. Identification of internal carotid patency by the use of ultrasonic techniques will permit surgical treatment in selected cases.

Vertebrocarotid collateral in extracranial carotid artery occlusions: digital subtraction angiography findings.

The internal and external carotid arteries are usually considered occluded distal to a common carotid artery occlusion but some collateral vessels may provide blood keeping the internal and external carotid arteries patent distal to the occlusion. Most common communication in such a case is diversion of blood from muscular branches of the vertebral artery to occipital branch of the external car...

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...

Assessing the intima-media thickness and Young modulus changes of the common carotid artery in the neck region external radiotherapy based on the processing of ultrasonic images

Since it is too vital to the prevention of carotid disease in the vascular system, it seems necessary to the estimation of the elastic behavior of the carotid artery in head and neck external radiotherapy. In the present study, a total of 24 neck carcinoma patients treated with external radiotherapy had been studied. The carotid mean dose values were determined for each case by contouring the c...
