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. A useful rule is that the coincidence of any local pain in neck or face with an ipsilateral Horner’s syndrome preceding transient ...

Carotid Artery Surgery

Carotid-Artery Disease

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.

Carotid artery dissection

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.

Carotid Artery Aneurysms

Vascular, 2004
We present the treatment of 17 extracranial carotid artery aneurysms in 16 patients (1 patient had bilateral lesions). There were 15 (93.75%) male patients and 1 (6.25%) female patient, with an average age of 64.8 years. Two (11.8%) aneurysms involved the common carotid artery and 15 (88.2%) the internal carotid artery. Two (11.8%) aneurysms presented

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 ...

Carotid artery stenosis

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2003
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 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.
