摘要

Common carotid artery (CCA) occlusion is sometimes associated with collateral flow through carotid bulb that preserves patency of internal carotid artery (ICA). Usually ipsilateral external carotid artery (ECA) anastomotic branches supply the ICA. But in this case, we found the contralateral ECA role in collateralization of the ipsilateral ICA to CCA occlusion using color carotid duplex. Introduction Occlusion of the common carotid artery (CCA) is generally associated with occlusion of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) and external carotid artery (ECA). Sometimes, however, collateral circulation to the ECA may preserve patency of the ICA via retrograde perfusion through the bulb (1, 2, 3). This collateral flow can be maintained through ECA anastomotic branches such as superior and inferior thyroidal arteries, deep cervical artery, descending branch of occipital artery (4), superior and inferior labial arteries (5) or an aberrant ICA branch (6). There is no patient report of natural connection of contralateral ECA to ipsilateral ICA as collateral in CCA occlusion patient to restore ICA flow. But this anastomosis surgically can be induced in some patients with CCA occlusion (7). This external carotid to external carotid crossover anastomosis may have application in the management of squamous cell carcinoma involving the common carotid or in the treatment of carotid artery blowout (8).These patients may suffer ongoing transient ischemic attacks and risk for stroke (1). Most authors agree to say that color flow duplex imaging has now become the hallmark to detect a patent ICA in spite of a CCA occlusion (2). Recognition of this pathologic variant may allow for effective surgical intervention (1). Such situation should not be ignored since bypass surgery can easily allow for effective restoration of flow (2). Case Report A 60-year-old, white man presented with Broca aphasia and right central hemifacial weakness. He did not history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, or transient ischemic attack. Physical examination showed only absent carotid pulsation in left side of his neck. First day brain CT scan was normal. Subsequent brain CT obtained on 5 th day of admission demonstrated a hypodense lesion in left paraventricular area. Carotid duplex revealed the absence of the blood flow in left CCA .The blood flow in the left ECA was reversed and fed the left ICA (fig.1).
