The purpose of this study was to report the treatment of intracranial internal carotid dissection and the radiologic and clinical result.Material And Method A 67 year-old female patient admitted for lower leg fracture at the outside university hospital. After 6 days later, she presented with left hemiparesis, verbal disturbance and visual disturbance. She transferred to our hospital and evaluated with MRI and Angiography. Angiography show stenosis with ulceration and pseudoaneurysm at the internal carotid artery. The stenosis rate was 63%. At the lesion, ophthalmic artery was poor visualized. Results The intracranial lesion was treated with angioplasty and stenting. After stenting, angiography showed good ophthalmic artery flow. Patients improved visual acuity just after stenting. Conclusions Intracranial angioplasty and stenting will be a good treatment option in a highly selected case.展开更多

A 59-year- old male patient presented with a new infarction in the left basal ganglia. Magnetic resonance angiography and cerebral angiography showed that the right internal carotid artery disappeared from the origin to the foramen lacerum segment, and there was an anastomotic artery with severe stenosis passed through the floor of the sella and in front of the cavernous sinus. The right A1 segment of the anterior cerebral artery was absent and A2 segment was supplied by the normal contralateral internal carotid artery via the anterior communicating artery.展开更多
