Histomorphological study confirmed that the carotid sinus was characterized by an abrupt thinning of elastic tunica media which was rapidly replaced by the normal muscularity of the media on the distal progression in the internal carotid artery. The carotid sinus was richly supplied with sensory receptors which took the form of menisci and left the sinus as the nerve of Hering.

Abstract Objectives Internal carotid artery (ICA), the main artery of the brain, passes through the cavernous sinus (CS) which forms one of these venous pools. During this transition, while there is arterial blood in the lumen of ICA, its outer surface is in contact with venous blood from the brain. Herein, we aimed to detect the receptor differences of ICA in this highly specialized anatomical region of the skull base. Methods We performed the study on 10 human cadavers and searched CGRPR, TRP12, ASIC3 and ACTHR receptors via immunostaining using laser scanning confocal microscopy. Results We determined TRP12 receptor positive in the tunica media and tunica adventitia layers of the cavernous segment of ICA. We did not detect similar positivity in the cervical part of the ICA. In the receptor scan we made in terms of CGRPR, while we detected positivity in the tunica media layer of the cavernous segment, we found positivity in the tunica intima layer of the cervicalis segment of the ICA. We did not detect any positivity for ASIC3 and ACTHR receptors in both parts of the ICA. Conclusions As a result, we observed various differences in receptors between ICA segments. While the outer surface of the ICA in the cervical region did not show any receptor positivity, we detected TRP12 receptor positivity along the tissue contour of vessel in the CS. We assume that it may provide a new perspective on pathologies of the CS/ICA and preservation of brain hemodynamics for clinicians.

In this study, the circulus arteriosus cerebri of the squirrel was investigated. Ten squirrel were used. Coloured latex was given from left ventriculi of the all squirrels. Circulus arteriosus cerebri was examined after the dissection was made. The basilar artery was formed by merge of the right and left vertebral artery. The caudal communicans artery which was caudal part of circulus arteriosus cerebri was formed by the basilar artery on sulcus pontocrurale. From caudal to cranial, the branches originated from the basilar artery and circulus arteriosus cerebri to cerebrum and cerebellum were as follows: the caudal cerebelli artery,rami ad pontem, the rostral cerebelli artery, the caudal choroidea artery, the caudal cerebral artery, the internal ophtalmic artery, the rostral choroidea artery, the media cerebral artery, rami striati and the rostral cerebral artery. In squirrels a variability was observed in the branches that the rostral cerebral artery gives, and their endings. It was determined that the internal carotid artery didn’t exist in 4 animals when the right and left vertebral artery were ligatured. It was found that the internal carotid artery didn’t contribute to the arterial blood to circulus arteriosus cerebri and the arterial blood to circulus arteriosus cerebri of squirrels is provided via only the basilar artery.

The article describes a computer modeling technique that allows predicting the development of restenosis of the internal carotid artery after carotid endarterectomy (CEE). A clinical case has been demonstrated that proves the effectiveness of the developed method. It is indicated that for the correct formation of the geometric model, data from multispiral computed tomography with angiography of the patient after CEE with a layer thickness of 0.6 mm and a current of 355 mA are required. To build a flow model, data of color duplex scanning in three sections are required: 1. In the proximal section of the common carotid artery (3 cm proximal to the bifurcation); 2. In the section of the external carotid artery, 2 cm distal to the carotid sinus; 3. In the section of the internal carotid artery, 2 cm distal to the carotid sinus. The result of computer calculations using specialized software (Sim Vascular, Python, Open Foam) is a mathematical model of blood flow in a vessel. It is an array of calculated data describing the speed and other characteristics of the flow at each point of the artery. Based on the analysis of RRT and TAWSS indicators, a computer model of bifurcation is formed, which makes it possible to predict areas of increased risk of restenosis development. Thus, the developed technique is able to identify a cohort of patients after CEE, subjected to a high probability of loss of the vessel lumen. Such an opportunity will provide a more precise supervision of these patients in the postoperative period with the aim of early diagnosis of restenosis and timely prevention of the development of adverse cardiovascular events.
