Case Report: Two cases of survival after complete transection of the left common carotid artery

Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
Penetrating carotid artery traumas are rare yet fatal injuries with a high rate of mortality, and survivors may live with neurological sequelae. Of all the types of penetrating carotid artery traumas, the total transection of the common carotid artery ...

Absence of both common carotid arteries [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1978
Abnormalities in the development of the embryologic aortic arches with resultant anomalies of the aortic arch and its branches are not uncommon. Absence of a common carotid artery in which there are separate origins of the internal and external carotid arteries is rare.

Longitudinal wall motion of the common carotid artery can be assessed by velocity vector imaging

Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, 2011
Velocity vector imaging (VVI) is novel ultrasound image analysis software, enabling simultaneous evaluation of longitudinal and radial tissue motion. This study aimed to investigate the possible usefulness of VVI in evaluating the longitudinal vessel ...

Variations of the origin of superior thyroid artery and its relationship with the external branch of superior laryngeal nerve. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
The superior thyroid artery, the main atrial supply of neck region, is branched from the external carotid artery as a first branch, but it may also arise from the common carotid artery and its bifurcation.

Genetic susceptibility loci for cardiovascular disease and their impact on atherosclerotic plaques [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in part caused by lipid uptake in the vascular wall, but the exact underlying mechanisms leading to acute myocardial infarction and stroke remain poorly understood. Large consortia identified

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Open surgical repair for in-stent restenosis of internal carotid artery covered stent-graft

Annals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations, 2023
Extracranial carotid artery aneurysms (ECAA) are rare vascular anomalies defined as any aneurysmal dilatation of the common, external, or internal carotid artery leading up to the skull base. Operative management is indicated due to the high incidence of

Association between arterial stiffness and atherosclerosis: the Rotterdam Study [PDF]

, 2001
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Studies of the association between arterial stiffness and atherosclerosis are contradictory. We studied stiffness of the aorta and the common carotid artery in relation to several indicators of atherosclerosis ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
