  • Title: Stenting of a Retropharyngeal Internal Carotid Artery.
    Author: Martin GH, Saqib NU, Safi HJ.
    Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2016 Jul; 34():268.e1-3. PubMed ID: 27174344.
    Abstract:
    A retropharyngeal course of the carotid artery is an uncommon variant. Recognition of this anatomic anomaly is important in avoiding severe hemorrhage with endotracheal intubation and oropharyngeal procedures and for planning carotid interventions. We present a rare case of stenting for an asymptomatic, high-grade stenosis in a retropharyngeal internal carotid artery.
