Background: Recent studies suggest that prolonged and intermittent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (prolonged bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (PO) and intermittent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion, respectively) can lead to reduced ischemia brain injury in ischemic tolerance. Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate the changes in brain lipidomics followin...

Objective(s):The present study investigated the effect of long-term mild cerebral hypoperfusion induced by permanent unilateral (right) common carotid artery occlusion (UCO) on the dorsal hippocampal neurons in rats. Materials and Methods:Sixty four male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 4 months were divided into two groups of sham and UCO. These two groups were further divided into 4 sets of histopath...

Introduction: In this study, a computer analysis method based on a block matching algorithm is presented to extract the longitudinal movement of the carotid artery wall using consecutive ultrasonic images. A window (block) is selected as the reference block in the first frame and the most similar block to the reference one is found in the subsequent frames. Material and Methods: The program was...

Carotid artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare condition, particularly in the paediatric population. Only about 30 cases of carotid artery aneurysms in infants have been published until now. This paper reports the case of a giant pseudoaneurysm of the left common carotid artery due to swallowed fish bone by an 8-year-old boy. This pseudoaneurysm was 5.5 cm transverse-diameter and resulted in severe re...

BACKGROUND Trifurcation of the common carotid artery is an unusual variation. CASE REPORT We report a case of left common carotid artery trifurcation in a 74-year-old man. The left common carotid artery divided into the internal carotid, external carotid and facial arteries. Herein, the anatomy of the carotid arteries and the Doppler sonography and CT angiography findings of the left common c...

OBJECTIVES To describe a new technique to repair injuries of the common carotid artery. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 30-year-old man sustained an iatrogenic injury to the left common carotid artery during surgical dissection of a left branchial cyst. The artery was repaired as follows: the left external carotid artery was ligated distally, its stump was longitudinally opened to cr...

introduction: doppler ultrasonography (dus) is the most preferable method for screening of carotid artery disease in patients undergoing cabg. the purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency of carotid artery disease and determine the relation between known risk factors of atherosclerosis and rate of carotid artery narrowing in order to identify high-risk groups among patients schedu...

Innominate artery injury is an uncommon consequence of blunt trauma to the neck due its protected position behind thorax. A 38-year-old male presented as a with right-sided pseudoaneurysm emanating from distal innominate after falling three-story building. On imaging, he also had bovine arch. He underwent hybrid repair covered stent placement common carotid into artery, carotid-subclavian bypas...
