  • Title: Treatment of limb-shaking TIAs with external carotid artery stenting.
    Author: Turtzo LC, Gailloud P, Gottesman RF.
    Journal: Clin Neurol Neurosurg; 2009 Oct; 111(8):695-8. PubMed ID: 19559521.
    Abstract:
    Limb-shaking transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) occur when perfusion is reduced to the cortical territory associated with the transient movements. We present a case in which a patient with preexisting left internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion developed limb-shaking TIAs secondary to severe stenosis of her left external carotid artery (ECA). After angioplasty and stenting of her left ECA, her symptoms resolved.
