What is bilateral stenosis of the carotid arteries?

Carotid artery stenosis is a narrowing of the large arteries on either side of the neck. These arteries carry blood to the head, face, and brain. This narrowing is usually the result of a build-up of plaque within the arteries, a condition called atherosclerosis.

Where is the bilateral carotid artery?

The carotid arteries are a pair of blood vessels located on both sides of your neck that deliver blood to your brain and head.

Is carotid artery disease the same as carotid artery stenosis?

Carotid artery disease is also called carotid artery stenosis. The term refers to the narrowing of the carotid arteries. This narrowing is usually caused by the buildup of fatty substances and cholesterol deposits, called plaque. Carotid artery occlusion refers to complete blockage of the artery.

Does stenosis mean blockage?

When an artery inside the skull becomes blocked by plaque or disease, it is called cerebral artery stenosis. Arteries anywhere in the body can become blocked. For example, carotid artery stenosis is a narrowing of the large artery in the neck, the carotid, that supplies oxygen-rich blood to the brain.

Which vessels are bilaterally symmetrical?

What is bilateral occlusion?

Bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion (BICAO) is a rare disease leading to serious cerebrovascular disease and complications including recurrent ischemic stroke or death. There are very few cases reported on BICAO, especially among young adults.

Is stenosis the same as atherosclerosis?

In the context of stroke, “stenosis” is usually caused by atherosclerosis, a condition where a blood vessel supplying blood to the brain is narrowed due to fatty deposits, known as plaques, on the vessel's inside wall. Risk factors for this type of stenosis include high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

Which artery is the most common to have blockage?

Importance in cardiovascular diseases: The LAD artery is the most commonly occluded of the coronary arteries. It provides the major blood supply to the interventricular septum, and thus bundle branches of the conducting system.

What is mild stenosis of carotid artery?
