Endovascular treatment with angioplasty or stenting versus endarterectomy in patients with carotid artery stenosis in the Carotid And Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Endovascular treatment (angioplasty with or without stenting) is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for carotid artery stenosis but there are scarce long-term efficacy data showing that it prevents stroke.

Clinical Impact of External Carotid Artery Remodeling Following Carotid Artery Stenting. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med
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.

No evidence that severity of stroke in internal carotid occlusion is related to collateral arteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background/AimThe neurological effects of internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion vary between patients. The authors investigated whether the severity of symptoms in a large group of patients with ipsilateral or/and contralateral ICA occlusion at ...

Low level termination of external carotid artery and its clinical significance: A case report

open access: yesArchives of Clinical and Experimental Surgery, 2015
The external carotid arterial system is a complex vascular system providing nourishment to the territorial areas of the head and neck. The branches of the external carotid artery are the key landmarks for adequate exposure and appropriate placement of ...

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

Configuration Origin Variants of Superior Thyroid, Lingual and Facial Arteries: A Proposal Updating of Current Classification

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Background: The aim of this study was to identify variations in the origins of the anterior branches of the external carotid artery (ECA) and to propose an update of the current classification. Methods: The study included 100 carotids arteries from fifty

The External Carotid Artery and the Styloid Process. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Health Sci J
The external carotid artery (ECA) is typically regarded as coursing between the styloid muscles to continue into the parotid space. The anatomical possibility of an ECA with an ascending parapharyngeal trajectory continuing posteriorly to an elongated styloid process (ESP), thus retrostyloid, to the parotid space is overlooked. It was, therefore, aimed

Reconstruction and quantification of the carotid artery bifurcation from 3D ultrasound images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Three-dimensional (3-D) ultrasound is a relatively new technique, which is well suited to imaging superficial blood vessels, and potentially provides a useful, noninvasive method for generating anatomically realistic 3-D models of the peripheral ...

Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundThe anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials ...
