AbstractKnowledge of variations of the internal carotid artery is significant to surgeons and radiologists. The internal carotid artery normally runs a straight course in the neck. Its anomalies can lead to its iatrogenic injuries. We report a case of a large loop of the internal carotid artery in a male cadaver aged about 75 years. The common carotid artery terminated by dividing it into the external carotid artery and internal carotid arteries at the level of the upper border of the thyroid cartilage. From the level of origin, the internal carotid artery coursed upwards, backwards and laterally, and formed a large loop behind the internal jugular vein. The variation was found on the left side of the neck and was unilateral. The uncommon looping of the internal carotid artery might result in altered blood flow to the brain and may lead to misperceptions in surgical, imaging, and invasive procedures.

Carotid Artery Compression

Although internal jugular vein stenosis (IJVS) is not uncommon, a lack of clinical attention will lead to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. This study describes two 61-year-old women with bilateral IJVS induced by tortuous internal carotid artery compression and reviews current reports on this condition, including its clinical characteristics and treatment strategies, to provide a reference for clinicians.

Diameter reductions in the internal carotid artery (ICA) and vertebral artery (VA) contribute to the decline in brain blood with hypotension. The decline in vertebral blood flow with hypotension was greater when carbon dioxide was low; this was not apparent in the ICA.

AbstractA 36-year-old male with a primary chondroid is presented. This tumour arose from the base of the temporal bone and extended to the mastoid cavity. It involved the facial nerve and was adherent to the internal jugular vein and internal carotid artery. The tumour was excised and the patient has been carefully followed up for 10 years. He has shown no evidence of local recurrence, intracranial extension of the residual tumour and distant metastasis.

Background: Extracranial vertebral artery disease is seen in patients with internal carotid artery stenosis although the clinical significance not well understood. Methods: We analyzed data that was collected as part of the Stent-Protected Angioplasty versus Carotid Endarterectomy (SPACE) trial which recruited patients with recently symptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis. We used Cox proportional hazards analysis to compare the relative risk of various endpoints between the three categories of extracranial vertebral artery disease (normal/hypoplastic, moderate/severe stenosis, and occlusion). The multivariate analyses were adjusted for age, gender, basic demographics and severity of carotid stenosis. Results: Of the 1181 subjects who had extracranial vertebral artery ultrasound evaluation, moderate to severe stenosis and occlusion of one of both extracranial vertebral arteries was diagnosed in 152(12.9%) and 57(4.8%) subjects, respectively. During the mean follow up period (±SD) of 22.1±7.1 months 102(8.6%) and 60(5.1%) experienced a stroke or died, respectively. Compared with subjects with normal or hypoplastic vertebral artery, there was a non-significant 30% higher risk of any stroke among subjects with moderate to severe vertebral artery stenosis (relative risk [RR]1.3, 95% confidence interval [CI]0.7-2.3) after adjusting for potential confounders. There was a 40% and 50% higher risk of ipsilateral stroke (RR 1.4, 95% CI0.7-2.5) and death (RR 1.5, 95% CI 0.7-3.1) among subjects with moderate to severe vertebral artery stenosis after adjusting for potential confounders. In Kaplan Meir analysis, the estimated 1 and 2 year stroke free survival for subjects with moderate to severe vertebral artery stenosis was 88% (standard error [SE]2.6%). In comparison, the estimated 1 and 2 year stroke free survival for subjects with normal or hypoplastic vertebral artery was 92.5%(SE0.8%)and 91.6%(SE0.9), respectively. Conclusions: There appears to be an increased risk of stroke and death in patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis with concurrent asymptomatic extracranial vertebral artery stenosis.
