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

Variant ascending pharyngeal artery maintaining flow in a subocclusive internal carotid artery [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 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.

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

Aberrant ICA and Associated Skull Base Foramina Visualized on Photon Counting Detector CT: Interesting Images [PDF]
DiagnosticsAberrant internal carotid arteries (ICA) are congenital vascular anomalies that occur from involution of the cervical portion of the ICA, which leads to enlargement of the normally small collateral inferior tympanic and caroticotympanic arteries.
