Abstract
A 62-year-old man was presented with transient ischemic attack 1 day after percutaneous coronary intervention. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated fresh cerebral infarction in the left hemisphere. Digital subtraction angiography showed left Riles type 1A common carotid artery occlusion (CCAO). Blood flow in the internal carotid artery (ICA) was derived from the external carotid artery, which came through the anastomosis between the left occipital artery and a muscular branch of left vertebral artery. We performed short jump graft from CCA to ICA using saphenous vein, followed by ligation of CCA. The graft remained patent at the 1-year follow-up.
