Prediction of tolerance to carotid artery occlusion using transcranial Doppler ultrasound.

abstract：:In a series of 32 surgical cases of carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysm, seven of the lesions were located in the "carotid cave." This special type of aneurysm is usually small and projects medially on the anteroposterior view of the angiogram. At surgery, it is located intradurally at the dural penetration of the inte...
