Congenital External Carotid Artery Aneurysm
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2010An 8-month-old child presented with a right pulsatile neck mass. The tumor's rapid increase in size and respiratory problems prompted image evaluation. An external carotid artery aneurysm was found, which was compressing other neck structures. The patient underwent aneurysm resection and ligation at its insertion on the common carotid artery.

The retromandibular loop of the external carotid artery
Annals of Anatomy - Anatomischer AnzeigerThe external carotid artery (ECA) is a major artery of the head and neck. Although numerous studies describe the variability of ECA branches, the course variation of the ECA was seemingly overlooked. It was aimed to study the morphological possibilities of the retromandibular segment of the ECA.A retrospective study was performed on 60 computed ...

Selective Catheterization of the External Carotid Artery
Radiology, 1966The effectiveness of cerebral angiography is considerably enhanced by selective catheterization of the external carotid artery. The advantages are as follows: 1. The procedure permits differentiation of extrinsic from intrinsic cerebral tumors and is of value in supratentorial as well as infratentorial masses (Figs. 1 and 2).

ABSTRACTBACKGROUND AND PURPOSEThe authors describe a case of a proatlantal intersegmental artery seen in the setting of external carotid artery dissection and subclavian steal due to proximal subclavian artery stenosis.METHODSAn 83‐year‐old woman presented with left homonymous hemianopsia and a right posterior cerebral artery distribution stroke.

Spontaneous external carotid artery occlusion
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1989AbstractThe case of a 64-year-old man who presented with severe left sided facial pain and cyanosis of the left ear, preauricular region and tongue is described. Digital subtraction angiography confirmed complete occlusion of the left external carotid artery.

Anomalous course of the external carotid artery
Anatomical Science International, 2015The course and the branching patterns of the external carotid artery were investigated macroscopically in a total of 550 bodies or 1100 head sides of Japanese subjects, donated for student dissection at Kumamoto University from 1994 to 2014. With the exception of 14 head sides, the external carotid arteries running between the posterior belly of the ...

The external carotid artery (ECA) arises from the bifurcation of the common carotid artery (CCA), usually at the level of the third and fourth cervical vertebrae. The superior thyroid artery (STA) can arise from a common trunk with the lingual artery as the thyrolingual trunk, or with the lingual and facial arteries as the thyrolinguofacial trunk ...

The external carotid artery (ECA) arises from the common carotid bifurcation at the C4 vertebral level. A more proximal or distal origin can occur. Variants of the level of the carotid bifurcation are described in Chap. 2. These variants also involve indirectly the origin of the ECA. The ECA may originate directly from the aortic arch.
