The Carotid Artery

2011
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 injuries

The American Journal of Surgery, 1982
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.

Carotid Stenosis Index Revisited With Direct CT Angiography Measurement of Carotid Arteries to Quantify Carotid Stenosis

Stroke, 2007
Background and Purpose— All carotid stenosis ratio methods are based on the inability of digital subtraction angiography to measure in millimeters. Each method has potential flaws.

Carotid Artery Occlusion

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1976
To the Editor.— The article by Drs Fields and Lemak (235:2734, 1976) raises a number of concerns regarding carotid artery occlusion. First, we are concerned that many physicians may now feel from their interpretation that angiography and surgery play no role in the evaluation and treatment of the symptomatic patient with an occluded carotid artery ...

Sonographic examination of the carotid arteries.

Radiographics, 2005
Ultrasonography (US) of the carotid arteries is a common imaging study performed for diagnosis of carotid artery disease. In the United States, carotid US may be the only diagnostic imaging modality performed before carotid endarterectomy. Therefore, the

Carotid artery rupture

The Laryngoscope, 1973
AbstractA carotid artery rupture should never occur. The figures presented strongly indicate that elective ligation of an impending rupture is the procedure of choice; however, this should seldom be necessary if nutritional deficiencies have been corrected; if pre‐operative radiation has been properly planned and timed, and if safe incisions are ...

Adaptations of carotid arteries of young and mature rabbits to reduced carotid blood flow.

American Journal of Physiology, 1989
Adaptive responses of rabbit common carotid arteries were examined after 70-80% reductions in blood flow produced by ipsilateral external carotid artery ligation.

ANEURYSMS OF THE CAROTID ARTERIES

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1983
Twenty‐one patients with 22 carotid aneurysms have been managed between 1960 and 1982. The aneurysms were congenital (3), atherosclerotic (8), false aneurysms after previous carotid operation (10) and mycotic (1). Carotid ligation was performed on four patients, one of whom suffered a stroke and died.
