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

Images in cardiovascular medicine : multiphoton microscopy for three-dimensional imaging of lymphocyte recruitment into apolipoprotein-E-deficient mouse carotid artery [PDF]
Two recent elegant studies have shown that in apolipoprotein-E– deficient mice, the lamina adventitia is a major site of arterial wall inflammation associated with lymphocyte infiltration into atherosclerotic arteries and with formation of adventitial ...

Atherosclerotic narrowing (stenosis) of the internal carotid artery accounts for about 10-15% of ischaemic strokes. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces the risk of stroke in patients with symptomatic stenosis and - to a lesser degree - with asymptomatic carotid stenosis. Endovascular treatment including balloon angioplasty and carotid artery stenting (

Infrahyoid wandering carotid arteries
Knowledge of retropharyngeal carotid arteries in patients is important in order to avoid potential catastrophic injuries. Previous studies demonstrated that carotid arteries can change in position at or near the level of the hyoid bone on serial scans ...

Effect of neck cut position on time to collapse in halal slaughtered cattle without stunning [PDF]
This study examined the effect of neck cut position on the time to physical collapse in upright restrained halal slaughtered cattle (n = 644). Time to collapse was used as an indirect indicator of the early stages of onset of unconsciousness. Cattle were

Multiple arterial disease in clinical practice [PDF]
There is a significant correlation among obliterate lesions of coronary carotid and peripheral arteries of the lower arteries at the same time. This pointed out that whenever clinical manifestations of obliterate disease of peripheral arteries are ...

Computational fluid dynamicaccuracy in mimicking changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with acute type IIIb aortic dissection treated with TEVAR [PDF]
Background: We aimed to verify the accuracy of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithm for blood flow reconstruction for type IIIb aortic dissection (TBAD) before and after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).
