A new syndrome of carotid occlusion following a minor head injury not obviously involving the neck is reported in one patient.
23 year old Korean Army soldier was admitted to department of neurosurgery in Pusan Military Hospital on March 2, 1970, because of minor head injury and fracture of right femur due to an automobile accident.
At the admission time, no specific neurological sign except mild. drowsy mental state.
22 hours after an automobile accident, he became drowsy and developed right hemiparesis and facial palsy on the right side.
Right carotid angiogrom was revealed an obstruction of the right internal carotid artery about l cm distal to the bifurcation of the common carotid. Left carotid angiogrom was normal, finding.
The characteristic delayed onset of unilateral motor and sensory defects in the relatively young patient is discussed.
Minor craniocerebra trauma resulting in carotid occlusion is a rare event.
The syndrome of carotid occlusion following minor, craniocerebral trauma includes hemiplegia, hemianesthesia, and homonymous visual field defects.
We present one of internal carotid artery occlusion without obvious neck injury, which we feel represent a special syndrome of carotid occlusion following minor craniocerebral trauma.
