Hemodynamic changes were examined with an ultrasonic Doppler flowmeter and with a sound-spectrograph in 5 patients with internal carotid giant aneurysms or with recurrent laryngeal cancer undergoing gradual carotid occlusion. The ultrasonic Doppler technique was useful for preoperative assessment of intracranial cross-filling and as a practical guide for the graded reduction of blood flow in th...

Neurologic deficits that occur simultaneously with or subsequent to internal carotid artery occlusion may be influenced by the adequacy of the intracerebral collateral circulation. Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography was used to evaluate mean middle cerebral artery blood velocity and blood flow in major collateral arteries in 78 patients, including 39 patients with 40 internal carotid artery o...

one of the signifiant risk factor of ischemic stroke is carotid artery occlusion. although surgical treatment was disappointing in these patient but there is a growing reports of sucessful endovascular treatment recently. in this technical note 56 year-old man who suffered from bilateral carotid occlusion was revascularized. the penumbra thrombosuction system was applied to reduce the risk of d...

A left ophthalmoplegia and right hemiplegia were due to thrombosis of an intracavernous aneurysm with occlusion of the left internal carotid artery. Ophthalmoplegia with contralateral hemiplegia is probably a rare syndrome. Thrombosis of an intracavernous aneurysm is probably a rare cause of occlusion of the internal carotid artery.

Background and Purpose: Ischemic episodes distal to an internal carotid artery occlusion are common. We undertook this study to look for evidence of transhemispheric passage of embolic material in this patient category as a mechanism for embolic events. Methods: Seven symptomatic patients with unilateral internal carotid artery occlusion and contralateral stenosis were examined by transcranial ...

objectives in this study, we aimed to investigate the changes in brain lipidomics following prolonged and intermittent ischemic preconditioning. materials and methods two groups underwent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion either intermittently (for 3 continuous periods within a timeframe of 20 minutes, releasing 3 consecutive times, yielding a total of 9 minutes (intermittent bilateral ...

BackgroundLittle is known about the best revascularization procedure for patients with contralateral carotid artery occlusion (CCO). We aim to compare outcomes of transcarotid (TCAR), endarterectomy (CEA), and transfemoral stenting (TFCAS) in CCO.Study designPatients Vascular Quality Initiative dataset who underwent CEA, TFCAS, or TCAR, had CCO between September 2016 April 2020, were included. ...
