Carotid–Carotid Bypass for a Carotid Artery Aneurysm
Surgical treatment for symptomatic extracranial carotid artery aneurysms should be encouraged because of their high recurrence rates.A 55-year-old man presented with progressive right-sided hemiparesis and dysarthria. Computed tomography angiography revealed the cause of his repeated cerebral infarction was due to the distal emboli from an intra ...

Effect of Micropolar Fluid Properties on the Blood Flow in a Human Carotid Model
Blood is a non-homogeneous fluid that flows inside the human artery system and provides the cells with nutrients. In this study the auto rotation effect of blood’s microstructure on its flow inside a human carotid model is studied by using a micropolar ...

Carotid endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid stenosis [PDF]
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is of proven benefit in recently-symptomatic patients with severe carotid stenosis. Its role in asymptomatic stenosis is still debated. The Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial (ACST) more than doubled the number of patients randomised to CEA trials.
