Repair of Common Carotid Artery Injury with an External Carotid Artery Flap [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Principles and Practice, 2004
<i>Objectives:</i> To describe a new technique to repair injuries of the common carotid artery. <i>Clinical Presentation and Intervention:</i> A 30-year-old man sustained an iatrogenic injury to the left common carotid artery during surgical dissection of a left branchial cyst.

Bradykinin/bradykinin 1 receptor promotes brain microvascular endothelial cell permeability and proinflammatory cytokine release by downregulating Wnt3a

open access: yesJournal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 36, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Stroke is a life‐threatening disease with limited therapeutic options. Damage to the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is the key pathological feature of ischemic stroke. This study explored the role of the bradykinin (BK)/bradykinin 1 receptor (B1R) and its mechanism of action in the BBB.

Automatic Diagnosis of Carotid Atherosclerosis Using a Portable Freehand 3D Ultrasound Imaging System [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The objective of this study is to develop a deep-learning based detection and diagnosis technique for carotid atherosclerosis using a portable freehand 3D ultrasound (US) imaging system. A total of 127 3D carotid artery scans were acquired using a portable 3D US system which consisted of a handheld US scanner and an electromagnetic tracking system. A U-

Variation in the Caudal Branches of the External Carotid Artery: Comparison of Sex and Side

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The branching pattern of vessels emerging from the external carotid artery varies considerably. Knowledge of this variation is critical for clinicians who perform neck procedures.

Low‐field MRI: Clinical promise and challenges

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 25-44, January 2023., 2023
Modern MRI scanners have trended toward higher field strengths to maximize signal and resolution while minimizing scan time. However, high‐field devices remain expensive to install and operate, making them scarce outside of high‐income countries and major population centers.

Computational hemodynamics in arteries with the one-dimensional augmented fluid-structure interaction system: viscoelastic parameters estimation and comparison with in-vivo data [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Biomech. 100 (2020) 109595, 2019
Mathematical models are widely recognized as a valuable tool for cardiovascular diagnosis and the study of circulatory diseases, especially to obtain data that require otherwise invasive measurements. To correctly simulate body hemodynamics, the viscoelastic properties of vessel walls are a key aspect to be taken into account as they play an essential ...

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

open access: yesInternational 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 ...

Limb-Shaking Transient Ischemic Attacks Successfully Treated with External Carotid Artery Stenting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The external carotid artery (ECA) is one of the most important extracranial-to-intracranial sources of collateral circulation, contributing significantly to the cerebral blood flow especially when perfusion through the internal carotid artery (ICA) is ...

Pencil‐beam scanning proton therapy for the treatment of glomus jugulare tumours

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 456-462, December 2022., 2022
The rare locally destructive glomus jugulare tumours could be treated using pencil‐beam scanning proton therapy (an alternative to surgery). Proton therapy provides good local control and acceptable toxicity. This paper reports treatment outcomes, acute and early late toxicities of 12 patients with glomus jugulare tumours.
