  • Title: Internal carotid artery thrombosis associated with a fracture.
    Author: Goldwasser MS, Lorson EL, Tucker DF, Dolan KD.
    Journal: J Oral Surg; 1978 Jul; 36(7):543-5. PubMed ID: 277641.
    Abstract:
    A case of occlusion of the internal carotid artery after craniocervical trauma with subsequent death of the patient is presented. The patient originally had a mandibular fracture; subsequently an altered sensorium and left-sided hemiparesis developed. The patient died. The typical "lucid interval" was noted. The changes in sensorium are similar to those associated with epidural and subdural hematomas.
