Interventional reperfusion for acute embolism of the middle cerebral artery trunk with contralateral internal carotid artery congenital absence
Internal carotid artery congenital absence with acute embolism of the middle cerebral artery trunk is very rare. A 65-year-old female with a history of hypertension and atrial fibrillation was admitted to the neurology department of our hospital. Computed tomography of the head and neck showed no ca...

description | Internal carotid artery congenital absence with acute embolism of the middle cerebral artery trunk is very rare. A 65-year-old female with a history of hypertension and atrial fibrillation was admitted to the neurology department of our hospital. Computed tomography of the head and neck showed no carotid canal of the petrous portion of the temporal bone; digital subtraction angiography (DSA) showed no left internal carotid artery and the right middle cerebral artery trunk occlusion. These results suggested acute embolism of the middle cerebral artery trunk with contralateral internal carotid artery congenital absence. Mechanical thrombectomy was performed, which had a good outcome. This case showed the vascular anatomy features of ICA congenital absence with contralateral large vessel acute occlusion, and it is essential to promptly identify the vascular variation during the interventional procedure. |
