Pseudo-occlusion and/or pseudo-stenosis of the intracranial internal carotid artery.

Abstract:

:This report summarizes our recent experience with two patients who presented with symptoms ipsilateral to a severe carotid stenosis at the bifurcation, with one having a severe stenosis at the siphon and the other an occlusion of the internal carotid artery in its intracranial portion. These lesions were documented on preoperative angiography. In both instances, persistence of symptoms, despite maximal medical therapy, led us to proceed with carotid endarterectomy. In both cases, intraoperative angiography confirmed a normal intracranial internal carotid artery, contrary to what had been seen on preoperative angiography. Carotid endarterectomy was performed, with resolution of clinical symptoms in both cases. This experience suggests that the appearance of the intracranial portion of the carotid artery can be significantly affected by the presence of a proximal lesion at the bifurcation. Stenosis and/or occlusion of the intracranial portion of the carotid artery may appear on preoperative angiography secondary to flow alterations as a result of the more proximal lesion. This, in part, may explain why many patients with combined extracranial and intracranial arterial disease improve after carotid endarterectomy and suggests that, in the presence of a severe extracranial lesion, further evaluation be undertaken to exclude the possibility of pseudo-stenosis or pseudo-occlusion of the intracranial carotid artery.
