Ascending pharyngeal artery collateral circulation simulating internal carotid artery hypoplasia [PDF]
Complete occlusion of the cervical segment of the internal carotid artery may result in a collateral circuit between an enlarged ascending pharyngeal artery and the intracranial segment of the internal carotid artery. This anastomosis may simulate a severely stenotic or hypoplastic internal carotid artery.

Direct Ascending Pharyngeal Artery to Jugular Vein Arteriovenous Fistula [PDF]
A 32-year-old female developed a bruit, determined to arise from a rare direct arteriovenous (AV) fistula from the ascending pharyngeal artery to the internal jugular vein. The fistula was treated by transarterial silicone balloon occlusion, with occlusion of fistulous flow, ablation of symptoms, and excellent long-term result.

Aberrant ICA and Associated Skull Base Foramina Visualized on Photon Counting Detector CT: Interesting Images [PDF]
Aberrant 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.

Aberrant Ascending Pharyngeal Artery Mimicking a Partially Occluded Internal Carotid Artery [PDF]
ABSTRACTDoppler sonography has become a primary imaging modality for the diagnosis of carotid arterial stenosis. Carotid stenting for a severely stenotic but not completely occluded carotid artery is becoming an alternative to carotid endarterectomy in selected groups of patients. The authors discuss a case of complete occlusion of the internal carotid

Falx Meningioma supplied by an Ascending Pharyngeal Artery arising from the Internal Carotid Artery
An elderly woman presented with a huge falx meningioma partially supplied by the posterior meningeal branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery, which arose from the cervical portion of the internal carotid artery. The findings in this case suggested that opacification of the ascending pharyngeal artery is important in making the diagnosis, even when ...

Typically, the cervical segment of the internal carotid artery does not have any branches in the neck. However, there are many variations reported in the branching pattern of the common carotid artery in the neck with variations in the origin of the ...

Ascending Pharyngeal vertebral Anastomosis with Bilateral Absence of Vertebral Arteries
The authors encountered a patient with an anomalous external carotid-vertebral anastomosis, which was found incidentally during examination for a recurrent pituitary adenoma. Left carotid angiography demonstrated a muscular branch of the ascending pharyngeal artery feeding the left vertebral artery, while bilateral retrograde vertebral angiography ...

P-022 The Road Less Traveled: Transarterial Embolization of Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas via the Ascending Pharyngeal Artery [PDF]
Introduction With the introduction of Onyx, transarterial embolization has become the most common endovascular approach for dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVF)s, often via the middle meningeal or occipital arteries.
