  • Title: Rare Case of Absent Common Carotid Artery Likely Associated with Intracranial Aneurysm Development.
    Author: Kwak Y, Choi MK, Kim KH, Cho JH.
    Journal: J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis; 2019 Jun; 28(6):e77-e80. PubMed ID: 30879713.
    Abstract:
    Congenital absence of the common carotid artery without separate origin of internal carotid artery and external carotid artery from the aortic arch is a very rare anomaly. A persistent proatlantal intersegmental artery into adult life is also a rare condition. We report a patient with the coexistence of such rare conditions who presented with cerebral infarctions and intracranial aneurysms.
