Evidence for Shear Stress-Mediated Dilation of the Internal Carotid Artery in Humans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Increases in arterial carbon dioxide tension (hypercapnia) elicit potent vasodilation of cerebral arterioles. Recent studies have also reported vasodilation of the internal carotid artery during hypercapnia, but the mechanism(s) mediating this ...

Spontaneous cervical artery dissection involving the common and internal carotid arteries associated with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis: a case report

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery
Background Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare, multisystemic, immune-mediated inflammatory disease. Carotid artery dissections involving both the cervical internal carotid artery and common carotid artery are rare.
