Surgical thromboendarterectomy for free-floating thrombus associated with cervical carotid artery dissection: A case report
Free-floating thrombus (FFT) of the cervical carotid artery is a rare but critical condition leading to stroke. The most common underlying pathology is atherosclerotic plaque; non-atherosclerotic pathologies are much rarer. Here we report a case of FFT associated with cervical carotid artery dissection that was successfully treated by surgical thromboendarterectomy.

Increased Internal Carotid Artery Tortuosity is a Risk Factor for Spontaneous Cervicocerebral Artery Dissection.
CONCLUSION: Arterial tortuosity is associated with sCCD, and greater tortuosity of the cervical artery may indicate an increased risk of arterial dissection. PMID: 33402322 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Can styloid process and internal carotid artery anatomy be used to predict carotid artery dissection?
This study assesses the association between styloid process length, internal carotid artery position and cervical carotid artery dissection (CCAD). This information would provide potential predicative radiological measurements, which could prevent delays in CCAD diagnosis.

Presentation, Outcome, and Evolution of Vertebral and Carotid Dissections: A Prospective Registry
Introduction: Dissection of carotid and vertebral arteries is a rare condition, which possibly leads to stroke; however, the ideal therapy for this condition is still a matter of debate. The aim of this study was to analyse the incidence, clinical presentation, treatment, and possible late recurrences of cervical artery dissections.
