The Common

Purpose: To describe an innovative endovascular technique combining a flexible self-expanding stent-graft to protect the common and internal carotid artery with selective coil embolization of the affected external carotid artery (ECA) branches. Case Report: A 42-year-old man presented with episodes of profuse but self-limited carotid hemorrhage from advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the neck. Despite invasion of the carotid sheath by the tumor, angiography confirmed the source of bleeding to be invasion of branches of the ECA. Successful coil embolization of the ECA and stent-graft isolation of the common/internal carotid arteries were performed. At 1-month follow-up, carotid angiography confirmed the complete occlusion of the ECA and patent stent-graft. There was no recurrent bleeding or neurological deficits at 6 months after the procedure. Conclusions: Stent-grafts in combination with coil embolization can be used to manage patients with impending carotid rupture secondary to head and neck cancer.

This study specifically investigates whether the use of both large cervical vessels (the external carotid artery and the internal jugular vein) as recipient vessels with end-to-side anastomosis enhance free flap survival in head and neck cancer reconstruction, when compared with the use of other standard smaller neck recipient vessels and end-to-end anastomosis. A total of 84 consecutive patients were included and were divided into two groups (42 in each group) according to the recipient vessels. The overall vessel thrombosis rate was 6% (five of 84 cases) and the overall flap loss rate was 2.4% (two of 84 cases) yielding a flap salvage rate of 60%. Vessel thrombosis occurred in three cases of the smaller vessels group and in two cases of the large cervical vessels group. This was not statistically significant.
