Resection and reimplantation of a critically stenosed and 360° coiled internal carotid artery.

چکیده
A 78-year-old man presented with recurrent left hemispheric transient ischaemic attacks. Angiography-wise and intraoperatively extreme internal carotid artery (ICA) coiling was noted with critical stenosis (Figs 1 and 2A). ICA bulb was transected, plaquebearing segment resected and ICA reimplanted onto endarterecomized carotid bifurcation (Fig. 2B). At 1-year follow-up, he is symptom-free with no stenosis on duplex ultrasound.

A Lumped Parameter Method to Calculate the Effect of Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion on Anterior Cerebral Artery Pressure Waveform
Background and Objective: Numerical modeling of biological structures would be very helpful tool to analyze hundreds of human body phenomena and also diseases diagnosis. One physiologic phenomenon is blood circulatory system and heart hemodynamic performance that can be simulated by utilizing lumped method. In this study, we can predict hemodynamic behavior of one artery of circulatory system (...

متن کاملCarotid angioplasty and stenting in a patient with high grade stenosis of Internal Carotid Artery associated with both vertebral arteries and contralateral carotid occlusion
Severe internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis is a common cause of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in middle-aged patients. Contralateral carotid occlusion (CCO) in patients with severe ICA stenosis is associated with high risk of CVA. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is associated with more complications in patients with CCO than those without CCO. In this study, we present the case of a 61-year-ol...
متن کاملThe diagnostic value of the resistivity index of the common carotid arteries in severe internal carotid artery stenosis.
Duplex ultrasound is currently used both for screening and for preoperative assessment of the carotid arteries and has completely replaced carotid angiography for the latter purpose in many institutions. The study aimed to identify resistivity index abnormalities in the common carotid arteries in patients with occluded or severely stenosed internal carotid arteries. Sixteen patients with severe...
