Fate of External Carotid Artery Following Carotid Artery Stenting for Internal Carotid Artery near Occlusion. [PDF]
Background: The external carotid artery (ECA) plays a vital role in facial perfusion and acts as a collateral pathway for cerebral blood flow during internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis. In cases of carotid near-occlusion (CNO), characterized by severe ICA stenosis with hemodynamic changes, carotid artery stenting (CAS) is rising as a potential new ...

Clinical Impact of External Carotid Artery Remodeling Following Carotid Artery Stenting. [PDF]
Background: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is a common revascularization approach for carotid artery stenosis. While its impact on the internal carotid artery (ICA) has been extensively studied, the effects on the external carotid artery (ECA)—a key collateral pathway for cerebral perfusion—remain insufficiently explored.

Differences in ultrasound-derived arterial wall stiffness parameters and noninvasive blood pressure between Friesian horses and Warmblood horses [PDF]
Background: Aortic rupture is more common in Friesians compared to Warmbloods, which might be related to differences in arterial wall composition and, as such, arterial wall stiffness (AWS).

Stab Injury to the Preauricular Region With Laceration of the External Carotid Artery Without Involvement of the Facial Nerve: a Case Report [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Open injuries to the face involving the external carotid artery are uncommon. These injuries are normally associated with laceration of the facial nerve because this nerve is more superficial than the external carotid artery. Hence, external

Effect of carotid artery stenting on the external carotid artery [PDF]
We studied the fate of the ipsilateral external carotid artery (ECA) after stenting of the internal carotid artery (ICA) compared with the contralateral ECA.One hundred twenty-one ipsilateral ECAs in 112 consecutive patients who underwent carotid artery Wallstent placement were prospectively studied with color-coded duplex sonographic scanning (CCDS ...
