The Electroretinogram in Carotid Artery Disease

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1962
The value of ophthalmodynamometry as a diagnostic aid in carotid artery disease has been established and so have its limitations.1-6 The use of electroretinography for clinical evaluation of the carotid artery system was suggested by previous studies in animals7,8and in 1 human subject.9Granit demonstrated a selective disappearance of theb-wave during

Carotid Artery Occlusive Disease

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2013
Carotid disease is a major contributor to stroke, one of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. Clinically significant stenosis can be detected by duplex ultrasound using well-established criteria.

Diseases of the intrapetrous carotid artery

Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1988
In the early years of skull base surgery, total tumor removal was often deemed impossible due to involvement of the intrapetrous carotid artery. In contrast, previously considered unresectable lesions may be removed totally in selected cases, with reasonable expectation of successful treatment at the present time.

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. After a

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
