The Relationship between Arterial Elasticity Parameters of Ascending Aorta, Abdominal Aorta and Carotid Arteries with Carotid Intima Media Thickness in Children with Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: Bicuspid aortic valve is a congenital cardiac malformation that affects not only the valve and ascending aorta but also the abdominal aorta and large central arteries like carotid arteries by damaging the elasticity of the vessel resulting in

Association of the RNF213 p.R4810K Variant With the Outer Diameter of Cervical Arteries in Patients With Ischemic Stroke

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2022
Background We investigated the impact of the p.R4810K variant of RNF213 (ring finger protein 213) gene, a susceptibility gene of moyamoya disease in East Asia, on the outer diameter of cervical parts of carotid and vertebral arteries (VAs).

Bilateral non-bifurcating carotid arteries in a patient with recurrent cerebrovascular events

Neurological Research and Practice, 2021
Introduction Among congenital anomalies of the carotid artery circulation, the presence of a non-bifurcating carotid artery is extremely rare. Relevant cases with unilateral non-bifurcating carotid artery have scarcely been described in the literature ...
