Abstract

Objective: Internal carotid artery bruising can lead to terrible results during basic pharyngeal surgical procedure. It is aimed to evaluate disposition of cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) to medially and evaluate possible risk factors in the terms of pharyngeal surgical treatments. Method: In this study, tri-dimensional (3D) computer tomography (CT) images of 28 patients whom internal carotid artery indented to pharyngeal wall diagnosed with multi-slice CT was investigated. All patients were older than 15. The study was planned on aberrant medialized cervical internal carotid artery which detected multi-slice CT incidentally in last 12 months. The course of abnormality and distance of carotid artery between pharyngeal wall was evaluated with 3D CT. Results: There were 20 women and 8 men totally 28 patients, ages were between 15-81. There were 23 cases with medialized ICA bilaterally and 5 cases with singlesided (2 left, 3 right ICA). According to Weibel and Fields classification 10 cases were in low risk (grade 1), 12 cases were in moderate risk (grade 2), 16 cases were in high risk (grade 3), 13 cases were in very high risk (grade 4). Distance to pharyngeal wall was measured 0.1 mm as minimum, 15 mm as maximum and 5.1 mm as average. Conclusion: Routine interventional and surgical treatments were made without any preoperative radiological imaging usually. To evaluate the course of ICA before the treatment is very important because of damaging artery during surgery and it is thought that 3D CT is the most effective imaging method for the detect ICA abnormalities.

Özet

Amaç: Basit faringeal cerrahi prosedürler sırasında internal karotis arter zedelenmeleri kanama riski açısından felaketle sonuçlanabilir. Bu çalışmada internal karotis arter servikal segmenti mediale dispozisyonu ve bu varyasyonun "rutin" farengeal cerrahi işlemler açısından olası risk faktörlerini değerlendirmektir. Yöntem: Bu çalışmada çok kesitli bilgisayarlı tomografi (ÇKBT) ile faringeal duvara indentasyon yapmış internal karotid arter segmenti saptanan 28 hastanın 3 boyutlu boyun tomografileri inceledi. Bu hastaların tamamı 15 yaş ve üzeri idi. Hastaların son 12 ayda çekilen ÇKBT tetkiklerinde insidental tespit edilen medialeize-aberan servikal internal carotid arter (ICA) segmentleri esas alınarak çalışma planlandı. Anomalinin seyri ve karotisfaringeal duvar mesafesi bilgisayarlı tomografide (BT) 3 boyutlu olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: 28 hastanın 20’si kadın, 8’i erkek olup hastaların yaş aralığı 15 ile 83 arasındaydı. ÇKBT değerlendirmesinde medialize internal karotid arter 23 vakada bilateral iken 5 vakamızda tek taraflıydı (2 vaka sol, 3 vaka sağ aberran ICA). Weibel ve Fields sınıflamasına göre; 10 hasta düşük (grade 1), 12 hasta orta (grade 2) ,16 hasta yüksek (grade 3) ,13 hasta aşırı yüksek (grade 4) olarak sınıflandırıldı. Duvara minimum uzaklık 0,1 mm ve azami uzaklık 15 mm arasında değişmekte olup ortalama uzaklık 5,1 mm idi. Sonuç: Rutin faringeal cerrahi ve girişimsel işlemler genellikle preoperatif radyolojik görüntüleme yapılmaksızın gerçekleşmektedir; ancak damar yaralanması açısından internal karotid arter seyrinin işlem öncesi ayrıntılı değerlendirilmesi büyük önem taşımakta olup üç boyutlu ÇKBT tetkikinin bu anomalileri değerlendirebilecek en etkin radyolojik görüntüleme yöntemi olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
