Anomalous origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery from the jugular branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery: A case report [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
The posterior inferior cerebellar artery usually arises from the vertebral artery and has several variants. The posterior inferior cerebellar artery originating from the jugular branch of ascending pharyngeal artery has rarely been reported.

Ascending pharyngeal artery arising from a hypoplastic internal carotid artery [PDF]

Avicenna Journal of Medicine, 2015
Normal vascular variants often have clinical/surgical significance and can be misinterpreted for pathology. We report a case ascending pharyngeal artery arising from a hypoplastic internal carotid artery.

Transcatheter arterial embolization for traumatic injury to the pharyngeal branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery: Two case reports. [PDF]

World J Clin Cases, 2022
The ascending pharyngeal artery (APhA) comprises the pharyngeal trunk (PT) and neuromeningeal trunk. The PT feeds the nasopharynx and adjacent tissue, which potentially connects with the sphenopalatine artery (SPA), branched from the internal maxillary artery (IMA). Due to its location deep inside the body, the PT is rarely injured by trauma.

Unilateral Variation of the Left Ascending Pharyngeal Artery: A Case Report. [PDF]

Cureus
During routine cadaveric dissection of a 77-year-old male, a series of unique arterial variations were observed within the left anterior cervical region. Firstly, the ascending pharyngeal artery (APA) was observed branching from the common carotid artery (CCA), between the internal (ICA) and external carotid (ECA) arteries. The APA continued superiorly

Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Originating from the Jugular Branch of the Ascending Pharyngeal Artery. [PDF]

NMC Case Rep J, 2019
The variation in which the posterior inferior cerebellar artery arises from the hypoglossal branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery is thought to be related to the remnant of the primitive hypoglossal artery, and is referred to as a primitive hypoglossal artery variant.

Variant ascending pharyngeal artery maintaining flow in a subocclusive internal carotid artery. [PDF]

BMJ Case Rep, 2019
Ectopic branches of the external carotid artery are rare but have critical diagnostic and therapeutic implications. We present a case involving a 70-year-old man who presented with recurrent left hemispheric strokes in the setting of a subocclusive left internal carotid stenosis.

Anatomical Variant: Ascending Pharyngeal Artery Arising from the Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery

Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2017
Ascending pharyngeal artery (APA) is a branch of the external carotid artery. Extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) usually does not have any branches.

An unexpected variation of occipital and ascending pharyngeal arteries: clinical implications. [PDF]

Surg Radiol Anat
Abstract Purpose The eight typical External Carotid Artery (ECA) branches are the superior thyroid artery, ascending pharyngeal artery, lingual artery, facial artery, occipital artery, posterior auricular artery, maxillary artery, and superficial temporal artery.

Onyx embolization of dural arteriovenous fistulas of the cavernous sinus through the superior pharyngeal branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery. [PDF]

BMJ Case Rep, 2014
We report three cases of dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) of the cavernous sinus treated by Onyx injection through the superior pharyngeal branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery. The treatment of choice of DAVFs of the cavernous sinus is endovascular, and it is preferentially done via transvenous occlusion of the cavernous sinus.
