  • For T1 VISTA, the diagnosis of the dissection was based on the presence of intramural high-signal, intimal flap, double lumen and aneurysmal dilation. (bmj.com)
  • One mechanism proposed suggests a rupture in the vaso vasorum of the media (middle muscular layer of the artery) leading to the creation of an intramural hematoma and a false lumen. (emdocs.net)
  • This condition is usually caused by the buildup of plaque, a combination of cholesterol, fat, calcium, and other substances, on the inner walls of the arteries. (diseasesdic.com)
  • This type occurs when the carotid arteries become narrowed due to the buildup of plaque on their walls. (diseasesdic.com)
  • In this type, the carotid artery becomes completely blocked, usually by a blood clot or a piece of plaque that breaks off from the artery wall and lodges farther downstream, blocking blood flow to a portion of the brain. (diseasesdic.com)
  • In these cases, there might be a significant degree of stenosis or plaque buildup in the carotid arteries, but the patient does not experience any noticeable symptoms. (diseasesdic.com)

  • Interestingly, the pale side of the face is the one with the sympathetic deficit because the vessels and perspiratory glands have been denervated, leading to supersensitivity to circulating adrenaline. (aao.org)
  • Carotid artery disease, also known as carotid artery stenosis, refers to the narrowing or blockage of the carotid arteries, which are the major blood vessels that supply oxygen-rich blood to the brain. (diseasesdic.com)

  • Carotid Artery Disease (CAD), characterized by the narrowing or blockage of the carotid arteries supplying blood to the brain, is a prevalent condition primarily affecting older adults, with prevalence rising notably beyond the age of 65. (diseasesdic.com)
  • However, carotid and vertebral dissections are still underrecognized despite their distinct clinical and radiologic manifestations. (medscape.com)
  • The final diagnosis of dissection was based on the clinical history, physical examination, and all of the imaging tests. (bmj.com)
  • Management of hemorrhage from a branch of the lingual or facial arteries may require an extraoral approach for ligation, because the mylohyoid, sublingual, and submental arteries can anastomose and be anatomically variable as well. (allenpress.com)

  • BACKGROUND: Fenestration of the cervical segment of the internal carotid artery is a very rare finding, and its origin is still not fully understood. (kl.ac.at)
  • However, most reported cases were symptomatic and presented with dissections, where even endovascular treatment of the fenestration of the cervical segment of the internal carotid artery became necessary. (kl.ac.at)
