Carotid Artery Pseudoaneurysm as a Complication of Carotid Artery Stenting
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2015Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has been adopted more in the treatment of carotid artery stenosis recently. The vast majority of studies about this procedure have concentrated mainly on the short- and long-term clinical complications, that is, stroke, myocardial infarction, and restenosis.

### Learning objectives After reading this article the reader should: In western countries, stroke is the fourth leading cause of death, after heart disease, cancer and chronic respiratory diseases.1 Carotid artery disease may be responsible for 10–15% of all ischaemic strokes.2 Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have established the benefit of ...

Educational objectives: To better understand the preoperative and intraoperative risk to the internal carotid artery in neck and skull base surgery and to work more closely and knowledgeably with their neurovascular surgical colleagues in combined cases.

The most serious complication that may be attendant upon radical surgery in the neck is compromise of the integrity of the carotid artery system either by elective ligation or by rupture. Such interference is not to be expected when the artery system is not violated technically and where the wound heals per primam.

Among the large variety of cerebrovascular syndromes, carotid artery dissections remain often under-recognized. Many patients present with minor or transient symptoms, some with local pain only, and some are asymptomatic. A useful rule is that the coincidence of any local pain in neck or face with an ipsilateral Horner’s syndrome preceding transient ...

Carotid endarterectomy is at present the most frequent intervention on arterial vessels performed in vascular surgery units. Currently the surgical technique is significantly improved compared to 10 years ago with a consequent reduction in terms of mortality and morbidity.

We present the treatment of 17 extracranial carotid artery aneurysms in 16 patients (1 patient had bilateral lesions). There were 15 (93.75%) male patients and 1 (6.25%) female patient, with an average age of 64.8 years. Two (11.8%) aneurysms involved the common carotid artery and 15 (88.2%) the internal carotid artery. Two (11.8%) aneurysms presented

Atherosclerotic plaque primarily involves the carotid bifurcation. Moderate plaque buildup frequently occurs in the common carotid but it rarely extends more than 3–4 cm into the internal carotid. Symptoms are rare due to flow reduction. This is the only vascular lesion where embolization is the primary pathologic entity.

Carotid Artery Revascularization
Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation, 2003Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States, and up to one third of patients have a stroke secondary to carotid occlusive disease. Surgical management has firmly established itself as an important modality in treating this disease. Several prospective randomized trials have defined the patients that would have the most benefit from ...

One-hundred twenty-nine patients with carotid artery injuries were analyzed to compare the results of revascularization with those of ligation or occlusion. In patients who present with central neurologic deficit short of coma (Grades 1 to 4), revascularization is clearly the operative method of choice.
