  • Title: Fibromuscular dysplasia of the internal carotid artery.
    Author: Sandok BA.
    Journal: Neurol Clin; 1983 Feb; 1(1):17-26. PubMed ID: 6680159.
    Abstract:
    Carotid artery fibromuscular dysplasia is uncommon. Most patients have a benign clinical course so caution should be used in treating these. Treatment for asymptomatic patients is not advised; symptomatic patients with evidence of progressive cerebral ischemia should be treated with medical or surgical therapy based on the presumed responsible pathophysiologic mechanism.
