Background Occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) may extend into the middle or anterior cerebral artery (ICA-T) or be confined to the intracranial (ICA-I) or extracranial segment (ICA-E).

Various conditions can lead to carotid artery neck pain. For instance, some people experience carotidynia, which is inflammation of the blood vessels. Carotid artery dissection can also cause pain ...

Background Challenging anatomy for carotid artery access can result in a delay to achieve successful recanalization in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Our objective was to study emergent direct ...

At laparotomy, the thrombosed false lumen was indeed found to be extending beyond the jejunal branches and the medial colic artery ... stenting or balloon fenestration. For the same reason ...

This common scenario presents a diagnostic conundrum whereby angina occurs but there is no obstructive CAD (ischaemia and no obstructive coronary artery disease—INOCA). We review new insights into the ...

Nature Research Intelligence Topics enable transformational understanding and discovery in research by categorising any document into meaningful, accessible topics. Read this blog to understand ...

What is carotid angioplasty and stenting? Angioplasty and stenting is a procedure to improve the blood flow in an artery or vein. The carotid artery is a large artery running along each side of your ...

Background: Basilar artery fenestration has been proposed as a contributor to ischemic stroke, as unique flow patterns induced by fenestration may be related to thrombus formation or insufficiency.

One bailout stent-graft was implanted into the left subclavian artery (LSA) by the chimney technique (0.8%). One fenestration was successfully and immediately corrected after misalignment (0.8%).

32 Currently, a large-scale multicenter RCT, the Carotid and Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion Surgery Study (CMOSS), is underway in China, which may provide further insights into the role of bypass ...
