Carotid Artery Disease [PDF]

Circulation, 2006
Carotid arteries are the blood vessels that deliver blood through the neck to the brain. There is one carotid artery on each side of the neck, where its pulsation can be felt with a finger below the jaw bone. Blockages in the carotid artery decrease blood flow to the brain, causing a medical condition known as carotid artery disease.

Plasticity of the bony carotid canal and its clinical use for assessing negative remodeling of the internal carotid artery.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Background and objectiveIt has long been believed that the bony carotid canal has no plasticity and that a small canal represents a hypoplastic internal carotid artery.

Early Outcomes in the ROADSTER 2 Study of Transcarotid Artery Revascularization in Patients With Significant Carotid Artery Disease

Stroke, 2020
Background and Purpose: Transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) is comprised of carotid artery stent placement with cerebral protection via proximal carotid artery clamping and reversal of cerebral arterial flow.

Simultaneous transcarotid artery revascularization with flow reversal and coronary artery bypass grafting: A novel hybrid technique

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Optimal management of concomitant coronary artery disease and carotid artery stenosis remains unknown. Current treatment strategies for patients with significant dual disease burden include simultaneous carotid endarterectomy and coronary artery bypass ...

Endarterectomy of carotid artery bifurcation in the setting of a persistent hypoglossal artery and anomalous collateral vascular supply

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
Presented is a patient with carotid artery stenosis resulting in crescendo anterior and posterior circulation transient ischemic attacks. Treatment was complicated by a rare persistent hypoglossal artery (HGA) arising from the left internal carotid ...

The triglyceride-glucose index is associated with atherosclerosis in patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease, regardless of diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidaemia

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2023
Background Diabetes and hyperlipidaemia are both risk factors for coronary artery disease, and both are associated with a high triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index). The TyG index has been presented as a marker of insulin resistance (IR). Its utility in

A cohort study of duplex Doppler examinations of the carotid artery in primary open angle glaucoma [PDF]

, 2014
Objectives To explore the possibility of pathological change in the common carotid artery at the bifurcation and in the internal carotid artery beyond the bifurcation which could contribute to a reduced diastolic pressure as observed in primary open ...

Resolution of Occlusive Carotid Artery Thrombus Treated with Anticoagulation as Demonstrated on Duplex Ultrasonography. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While the majority of cerebral ischemic events due to carotid occlusive disease result from atherosclerotic plaque rupture, intraluminal carotid artery thrombus occasionally occurs in patients without preexisting carotid ...

Natriuretic peptide receptor-C is up-regulated in the intima of advanced carotid artery atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVE: Natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C/NPR-3) is a cell surface protein involved in vascular remodelling that is up-regulated in atherosclerosis. NPR-C expression has not been well characterized in human carotid artery occlusive lesions.
