Common carotid artery occlusion [PDF]

open access: possibleNeurology, 1989
Symptomatic common carotid artery occlusion (CCAO) is rare. We studied 17 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular symptoms and unilateral CCAO on angiography to help clarify clinical and radiologic features. Mean age was 62 years; 65% were women. Predominant symptoms and signs included visual-ipsilateral monocular or retrochiasmal symptoms (88%), motor ...

Aneurysms of the Common Carotid Artery

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1973
While carotid aneurysms are rare, their detailed consideration is useful because surgical treatment is beneficial and gratifying. Trauma and arteriosclerosis are the most common causes.

Wounds of common carotid arteries

The American Journal of Surgery, 1948
Abstract A series of seventeen wounds involving the common carotid artery is reported from experiences in certain forward army hospitals during World War II. The artery was ligated in twelve patients and eight of these survived, with cerebral signs (transient hemiplegia) in only two cases.

Postendarterectomy Common Carotid Artery Pseudoaneurysm

Vascular, 2006
Pseudoaneurysm (PSA) formation is an uncommon complication in carotid surgery. PSA of the carotid artery requires surgical or endovascular treatment to prevent PSA thrombosis, embolization from the thrombotic material within the PSA, hemorrhage after rupture, or compression on the adjacent structures.

Spontaneous Rupture of the Common Carotid Artery

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1982
A spontaneous rupture of the common carotid artery occurred in a 56-year-old, apparently healthy, man. The patient suffered a sudden, painful swelling on the left side of the neck and bulge of the tonsillar fossa simulating a parapharyngeal abscess.

Absence of the right common carotid artery

Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2009
In a 33-year-old male patient with multiple sclerosis, brain magnetic resonance imaging incidentally showed a narrow right intracranial internal carotid artery. Gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography showed absence of the right common carotid artery.

Cryopreservation of the Common Carotid Artery of the Rabbit

Cryobiology, 1994
We describe experiments on the cryopreservation of the rabbit common carotid artery aimed at improving upon previous results. We describe the design of a double clamp which holds the artery during transportation and storage, preventing twisting, shortening, and collapse of the vessel.

Vertebral-carotid bypass for common carotid artery occlusion

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2020
One of the treatment options for long segment common carotid artery (CCA) occlusion is bypass surgery with different combinations of donors and receipts. Using vertebral artery (VA) as the donor for CCA occlusion was uncommonly reported. The reported cases were using jump graft to connect V3 segment of VA to either CCA or ICA.

Traumatic Aneurysm of the Common Carotid Artery

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1968
THE UNEXPECTED finding of an aneurysm of the carotid artery during the biopsy of a mass in the neck for histologic diagnosis can be catastrophic. In this regard, a false (traumatic) aneurysm of the common carotid artery in a 37-year-old man is reported. A review of the literature and suggestions for management are presented.

Retrograde thrombectomy for chronic occlusion of the common carotid artery.

Archives of Surgery, 1967
TOTAL occlusion of the common carotid artery is a significant cause of cerebrovascular insufficiency. 1-4 This lesion has been found in from 3% to 20% of all patients who have symptoms caused by extracranial vascular disease.
