Carotid Artery Disease

2017
Abstract Carotid artery atherosclerotic disease is a well-established risk factor for ischemic stroke. While often asymptomatic, the disease could present with symptoms resulting from low hemodynamic pressure in the carotid system or from emboli arising from carotid plaque.

Carotid Artery Disease

2019
Abstract Carotid artery disease is a common source of ischemic stroke due to ulcerated or hemorrhagic plaque. Risk factors for carotid artery disease include typical atherosclerotic disease risk factors, such as smoking, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes mellitus.

Carotid Artery Disease

Abstract Carotid artery disease is a common cause of ischemic stroke and is often associated with atherosclerotic risk factors. Symptomatic carotid artery disease usually leads to anterior circulation neurologic deficits (eg, aphasia, contralateral hemiparesis and sensory deficits from middle cerebral artery ischemia, ipsilateral ...

Carotid Artery Disease

The Diabetes Educator, 1985
Because macroangiopathy is a ma jor complication of diabetes, evalua tion of the carotid arteries for possible obstruction is of primary importance. Patients with transient ischemic at tacks, a precursor of strokes, are liable to have either a mechanical reduction of flow secondary to stenosis or a re lease of emboli from extracranial plaques.

Symptomatic Carotid Artery Disease and Carotid Endarterectomy

Annual Review of Medicine, 1988
Mi\ler Fisher in 1951 described the signs and symptoms associated with occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) in the neck (1). Before then, most cerebral infarcts in the anterior circulation were attributed to thrombosis of thc middle cerebral artery (MCA). Fisher emphasized that the occlusive disease was extracranial and predicted that surgery

Carotid Artery Disease, Carotid Endarterectomy, and Behavior

Archives of Neurology, 1980
Thirty-five carotid endarterectomy patients and 17 peripheral vascular surgery controls were evaluated psychologically preoperatively and postoperatively. The endarterectomy sample was restricted to patients with transient ischemic attacks. Neuropsychological tests included measures of language, attention, memory, problem solving, and sensory and motor

Microembolism in Carotid Artery Disease

Echocardiography, 1996
Abnormal high intensity transient signals detectable with transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography have been associated with formed cerebral microembolism. Using long‐term TCD monitoring, these clinically silent microembolic events can be observed in patients with cerebrovascular disease.

Carotid and Vertebral Artery Disease

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2013
Extracranial carotid artery disease is commonly seen in patients presenting with stroke symptoms. It is also a frequent incidental finding in patients undergoing evaluation as part of a routine examination in the outpatient setting. Several diagnostic imaging modalities are currently available.

Carotid Artery Disease

2012
Familiarity with the extra- and intracranial vessel anatomy is decisive for successful treatment of carotid artery disease. The right common carotid artery originates from the bifurcation of the brachiocephalic trunk, while the left one arises directly from the aortic arch. The common carotid artery does not have any side branches. Usually at the level

Carotid artery disease

Surgery (Oxford), 2004
Abstract Stroke is the principal cause of persisting neurological disability in the ‘developed’ world. The most common cause of ischaemic carotid territory stroke is thromboembolism, usually from stenoses in the extracranial internal carotid artery.
