Variations in external carotid artery branches and common carotid bifurcation level: a computed tomography angiography study

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2023
Background The common carotid bifurcation level is an important surgical landmark during head and neck surgery, especially endarterectomy, that could be omitted in patients with high bifurcation levels to reduce damage to neighboring structures like the ...

Variations in branching pattern of external carotid artery in a black Kenyan population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Knowledge of variations in branching of external carotid artery is important to minimise inadvertent injury and confusion in identification during neck and craniofacial surgery and interventional neuroradiology.

Vascular co‐option and vasculogenic mimicry mediate resistance to antiangiogenic strategies

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The concept that all the tumors need the formation of new vessels to grow inspired the hypothesis that inhibition of angiogenesis would have led to “cure” cancer. The expectancy that this type of therapy would have avoided the insurgence of resistance was based on the concept that targeting normal vessels, instead of the cancer ...

Anatomical study of the internal carotid artery of the aulacode (Thryonomys swindérianus, Temminck 1827) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The arterial circle at the base of the skull appears to be supplied only by the vertebrobasilar system. The anatomy of the internal carotid artery is not  known. The aim of this study was to contribute to a better understanding of the anatomy of the

Calcification of the external carotid arteries and their branches [PDF]

open access: yesDentomaxillofacial Radiology, 2012
This patient had longstanding hypercalcaemia and hyperphosphataemia owing to chronic renal disease, then finally failure, inducing tertiary hyperparathyroidism. He also had long histories of diabetes mellitus type II, hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia. He then reported a painful expansile swelling of the anterior mandible which was diagnosed as a "

Predictive Role of External Carotid Artery Vasospasm on Cerebral Ischemia After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Experimental Study.

open access: yesTurkish Neurosurgery, 2016
AIM Cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) may lead to a devastating neurological outcome by inducing cerebral ischemia. However the role of external carotid artery (ECA) vasospasm has been rarely reported in the literature.

A subset of OPCs do not express Olig2 during development which can be increased in the adult by brain injuries and complex motor learning

open access: yesGlia, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 415-430, February 2023., 2023
Main Points A subset of OPCs do not express Olig2, of which population peaks in the juvenile brain while wanes with age. Plastic changes of the brain by acute injuries or complex motor learning stop the expression of Olig2 in OPCs. Abstract Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are uniformly distributed in the mammalian brain; however, their function ...
