  • Title: [Conservative treatment of acute embolisms of the carotid bifurcation].
    Author: Ernst S, Roedel C, Frauchiger B.
    Journal: Vasa; 2003 Feb; 32(1):51-3. PubMed ID: 12677768.
    Abstract:
    Embolic events of the carotid bifurcatin are a rare cause of cerebrovascular accidents. We observed two patients who showed a spontaneous recanalisation of an embolic occlusion of the extracranial vessels when treated with conservative procedure using heparin. Both patients had a near complete remission of the symptoms without impairment in their daily activities.
