A D V E R T I S E M E N T
A 58-year-old man had a 4-month history of increasing transient ischemic attacks (TIA's) (see cerebrovascular disease) manifesting as right-sided hemiparesis and aphasia (there was a prior history of partial amaurosis). The patient was having several such episodes per day. The lateral angiogram of the left carotid shows total occlusion of the left internal carotid artery.
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
The right internal carotid (AP view) was patent with no flow between right and left circulations via an anterior communicating artery (see brain circulation.)
