  • Title: Unilateral agenesis of the internal carotid artery.
    Author: López-Álvarez F, Bernardo-Corte MA, Gómez-Martínez JR, Suárez-Nieto C.
    Journal: Acta Otorrinolaringol Esp; 2012; 63(1):72-4. PubMed ID: 21288497.
    Abstract:
    Unilateral agenesis of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is an extremely rare anomaly. Diagnosis is often incidental in a radiological examination. Recognition of this anomaly has important clinical implications because other life-threatening conditions can be associated and it must be taken into account when planning carotid surgery. We report a case of 64-year-old man with agenesis of the ICA.
