Carotid artery stenting compared with endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (International Carotid Stenting Study): an interim analysis of a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Stents are an alternative treatment to carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis, but previous trials have not established equivalent safety and efficacy.

Unusual position of external carotid artery: a case report

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2005
The arterial pattern of the human body is one of the systems that show a large number of variations. Many reports are available regarding variations of common carotid, external and internal carotid arteries and branches of external carotid artery.

Bilateral higher carotid termination with rare anomalous emergence of ventral branches of the external carotid arteries: A cadaver study

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2022
The common carotid artery bifurcates into two terminal branches—the external and internal carotid arteries. The head, neck, and face regions principally get their blood supply from the external carotid artery and its branches. Some previous articles have

Bilateral common carotid artery dissection [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2012
A 63-year-old Japanese man with no significant medical or family history was admitted for sudden consciousness disturbance, left hemiparesis and shock. Physical examination showed internal carotid artery asymmetry on palpation and significant differential blood pressure in both upper arms.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Cyclic variation of the common carotid artery structure in relation to prior atherosclerotic burden and physical activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background and aims: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts for the most deaths of non-communicable diseases worldwide. It begins with structural and functional changes of the arterial system commonly known as the atherosclerotic process, starting ...

Head and neck CT angiography to assess the internal carotid artery stealing pathway

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2020
Background Common carotid artery occlusive disease (CCAOD) could form internal carotid artery steal pathways. Based on the diagnostic results of digital subtraction angiography (DSA), head and neck computed tomography angiography (CTA) was used to find ...

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from the CHARGE consortium identifies common variants associated with carotid intima media thickness and plaque [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) and plaque determined by ultrasonography are established measures of subclinical atherosclerosis that each predicts future cardiovascular disease events.

BYPASS SURGERY IN PATIENTS WITH COMBINED ATHEROSCLEROTIC LESIONS OF COMMON AND INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY

open access: yesВестник хирургии имени И.И. Грекова, 2016
An analysis of data of carotid angiographies was made in 146 patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease. Combined lesions of the common and internal carotid artery with clinical signs were revealed in 2 (1,4%) patients.

Predictive haemodynamics in a one-dimensional human carotid artery bifurcation. Part II: application to graft design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A Bayesian surrogate modelling technique is proposed that may be able to predict an optimal bypass graft configuration for patients suffering with stenosis in the internal carotid artery (ICA). At the outset, this statistical technique is considered as a
