Carotid artery injuries

The American Journal of Surgery, 1982
One-hundred twenty-nine patients with carotid artery injuries were analyzed to compare the results of revascularization with those of ligation or occlusion. In patients who present with central neurologic deficit short of coma (Grades 1 to 4), revascularization is clearly the operative method of choice.

Blunt Carotid Artery Injuries

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 1997
Blunt carotid artery trauma remains a rare but potentially devastating injury. Early detection and treatment remain the goals of management. Our objective was to identify patients sustaining blunt carotid injuries at a regional trauma center and report on the incidence, demographics, diagnostic workup, management, and outcome.A retrospective chart ...

Incidence of Unsuspected Blunt Carotid Artery Injury

open access: bronzeNeurosurgery, 1998
This study attempts to document the incidence of unsuspected blunt carotid artery injury (BCI) in a prospective series of consecutive blunt trauma patients undergoing angiographic evaluation of the aorta. Previous studies have included mainly patients who became symptomatic from BCI, thus documenting a "detected incidence."During a 22-month period, all

Carotid Artery Injuries

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1989
This is a retrospective study of 124 patients with carotid injuries. The common carotid artery was injured in 84% of the patients. Associated trauma to the internal jugular vein was present in 26%. Most patients (56%) were dead on arrival to the hospital and of those who were operated on, the mortality was 22% (overall mortality, 66%).

Internal Carotid Artery Stenting for Blunt Carotid Artery Injuries With an Associated Pseudoaneurysm

Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection & Critical Care, 2008
Blunt carotid artery injuries (BCI) are being recognized and treated with increasing frequency because of improved screening protocols. Recent advances in endovascular techniques using microcoils, angioplasty, and stenting offer a new treatment strategy for those patients with traumatic pseudoaneurysms (PA) (BCI and PA).
