Coiling of the Carotid Arteries

Southern Medical Journal, 1987
We have presented a case of extensive coiling of both common carotid arteries in which surgical reconstruction on the most severely affected side relieved symptoms of cerebrovascular insufficiency. The underlying lesion is believed to be congenital, and surgical correction is recommended in symptomatic patients.

Carotid Artery Dissection

Annual Review of Medicine, 2000
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.

Imaging of the carotid artery

Atherosclerosis, 2012
In the study of carotid arteries, modern techniques of imaging allow to analyze various alterations beyond simple luminal narrowing, including the morphology of atherosclerotic plaques, the arterial wall and the surrounding structures. By using CTA and MRI it is possible to obtain three-dimensional rendering of anatomic structures with excellent detail

Carotid Ultrasonography in Carotid Artery Disease

Southern Medical Journal, 1984
Real-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.

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 ...
