Dissection of the Common and External Carotid Artery [PDF]

Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2006
extension of the neck. Another report [2] describes 54 patients with blunt and sharp carotid artery injuries but without mentioning dissections. In 20% of the patients, the ECA was affected, but the trauma included stab wounds and gunshot wounds. Campbell et al. [3] describe a case of ECA pseudoaneurysm from hyoid bone fracture. In 1994, Minion et al. [

Natriuretic Peptide Receptor 2 Locus Contributes to Carotid Remodeling

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Carotid artery intima/media thickness (IMT) is a hallmark trait associated with future cardiovascular events. The goal of this study was to map new genes that regulate carotid IMT by genome‐wide association.

Fate of the external carotid artery following carotid interventions [PDF]

International Journal of Angiology, 2009
The external carotid artery (ECA) is an important collateral pathway for cerebral blood flow. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) typically crosses the ECA, while carotid endarterectomy (CEA) includes deliberate ECA plaque removal. The purpose of the present study was to compare the long-term patency of the ECA following CAS and CEA as determined by carotid ...

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...

A safe transoral surgical approach to parapharyngeal tumor arising from deep lobe of parotid gland [PDF]

, 2016
The management of parapharyngeal tumor is surgical, but the approach remains a challenge. Attention should be paid to avoidance intra-operative bleeding or cranial nerves damage. We report a case of a 67-year-old male complaining of left-ear fullness.

From In‐Silico Optimized Microfabrication to Experimental Validation: Engineering a Tridimensional Epi‐Intraneural Interface

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An epi‐intraneural interface is developed through in silico optimization and a novel tridimensional microfabrication pipeline. The device integrates penetrating and epineural contacts on a flexible substrate. Mechanical, electrochemical, and in vivo testing in rat and pig reveal robust implantation, low‐threshold activation, and site‐dependent ...

Angioarchitectural evolution of clival dural arteriovenous fistulas in two patients. [PDF]

, 2015
Dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) may present in a variety of ways, including as carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas. The ophthalmologic sequelae of carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas are known and recognizable, but less commonly seen is the rare clival ...
