Carotid Artery Tortuosity and Internal Carotid Artery Plaque Composition
Clinical Neuroradiology, 2023Little is known about the association between carotid artery tortuosity and internal carotid artery atherosclerosis. This study sought to evaluate the associations between various types of arterial tortuosity and vulnerable plaque components on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).A retrospective review was completed of 102 patients who had undergone ...

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 ...

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2004
Dissection of the carotid artery in the neck is a relatively common condition. Most dissections are spontaneous, likely related to activities that cause sudden stretch of the pharyngeal portion of the carotid artery. Many patients do not develop brain ischemia but have a triad of neck and head pain, Horner's syndrome, and pulsatile tinnitus.

### 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 ...

New England Journal of Medicine, 1986
Few medical issues are more controversial than carotid endarterectomy. The subject has been featured in the general press and on prime-time television; dispute has been encouraged between surgeon and nonsurgeon, with "needless surgery" a refrain poorly concealed in the background. These debates usually have more passion than substance.

Qureshi and colleagues report the results of a prospective longitudinal pilot registry to test the short-term (30-day) and intermediate-term (1-year) safety and efficacy of a novel coiled sheet stent used for extracranial carotid artery (CA) angioplasty and stent placement.

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.

Early carotid artery stenting for symptomatic carotid artery stenosis
Acta Neurochirurgica, 2015The aim of present study was to assess safety and efficacy of early carotid artery stent (CAS) in patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis compared with delayed CAS.This retrospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and the requirement to obtain written informed consent was waived.

Carotid Artery Stenting After Carotid Endarterectomy
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2011Atherosclerotic carotid artery disease remains an important cause of cerebrovascular ischemic disease. We present a patient with residual stenosis of the distal internal carotid artery following carotid endarterectomy that was treated with stenting. The case highlights the potential complimentary benefits of carotid endarterectomy and carotid stenting.

Carotid Ultrasonography in Carotid Artery Disease
Southern Medical Journal, 1984Real-time high resolution carotid ultrasonography was performed in 1,300 patients of whom 294 also had carotid arteriography, allowing evaluation of 586 extracranial carotid vessels. Of the 586 extracranial vessels studied, 411 were normal by arteriography; of these, 381 (93%) were also normal by ultrasonography or showed only superficial plaques.
