Revascularization of the External Carotid Artery

Archives of Surgery, 1988
Numerous reports describe the relative effectiveness of external carotid artery (ECA) revascularization in patients with ipsilateral internal carotid artery occlusion. Most, however, suffer from small numbers of patients or lack of detailed follow-up data. In addition, controversy persists regarding the safety with which this procedure can be performed.

External carotid arterial injury

Injury, 2008
Carotid vascular trauma has high mortality. The two primary causes of death are associated head injury and vascular injuries that cause exsanguination or stroke. In the past two decades interventional radiology, i.e. techniques of transcatheter embolisation, has become a vital component of the care of these cases.

External Carotid Artery

2020
The external carotid artery (ECA) gives off various branches supplying musclocutaneous organs, visceral organs (pharynx, oral cavity, larynx, and thyroid), cranial nerves, facial and skull bones, and dura matter. It communicates to the cerebral arteries and ophthalmic artery via various potential anastomoses.

EXTERNAL CAROTID ENDARTERECTOMY FOR AMAUROSIS FUGAX IN THE PRESENCE OF INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY OCCLUSION

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1994
Two patients with occlusion of the internal carotid artery who were experiencing repeated episodes of transient monocular blindness in the ipsilateral eye were successfully treated with external carotid endarterectomy.

Embolization in the External Carotid Artery

Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2006
The technical skill set of peripheral interventional radiologists is well-suited to the performance of most transcatheter embolization procedures in the external carotid artery (ECA). These procedures center in large part on hypervascular tumors, epistaxis, and trauma.

Bilateral External Carotid Artery Aneurysms

Vascular, 2004
A 60-year-old female was found on a physical examination to have bilateral palpable pulsatile neck masses. She denied local pain, cranial nerve compressive symptoms, or symptoms of cerebral ischemia. Duplex ultrasonography demonstrated bilateral 1.5 x 2.2 cm external carotid artery aneurysms.

Mycotic aneurysm of the external carotid artery

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1998
AbstractMycotic aneurysms of the extracranial carotid arteries are extremely rare. A case is reported of a false aneurysm of the left external carotid artery. This developed secondary to cervical lymphadenitis which did not settle with high dose antibiotic therapy.

Duplex US of the External Carotid Artery

Acta Radiologica, 1996
The ratio between the systolic peak velocities of the internal and common carotid arteries (vpICA/vpCCA), vpICA and grey-scale imaging measurement are generally used to evaluate internal carotid stenosis against known flow criteria in order to differentiate non-significant from significant stenosis.

External carotid artery stenting in symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2020
We report the case of a patient with an anterior ischemic stroke due to tandem occlusion of the left M2 segment and ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA), with concomitant severe stenosis of the ipsilateral external carotid artery (ECA) and contralateral ICA, and moderate stenosis of the left vertebral artery (VA); as thrombectomy was not possible,

Arteriovenous Fistula of External Carotid Artery

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1968
ARTERIOVENOUS fistulas of the face and neck are rare clinical entities but do occur either as congenital disorders or as the result of trauma. Flynn and Mulder 1 define the congenital arteriovenous fistula as a nontraumatic vascular abnormality in which the arterial blood passes into the venous system without traversing the capillary bed.
