Carotid Body - 새창 A small cluster of chemoreceptive and supporting cells located near the bifurcation of the internal carotid artery. The carotid body, which is richly supplied with fenestrated capillaries, senses the pH, carbon dioxide, and oxygen concentrations in the blood and plays a crucial role in their homeostatic control.
Synonyms : Bodies, Carotid, Body, Carotid, Caroticum, Glomus, Carotid Bodies
Carotid Body Tumor - 새창 An invariably benign, encapsulated, firm round mass at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery, with nests of large polyhedral cells in alveolar or organoid arrangement. It is usually asymptomatic but large masses may encroach upon the parapharyngeal space and produce dysphagia, pain, and cranial nerve palsies. (Dorland, 27th ed; DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology, 3d ed, pp570-71)
Synonyms : Carotid Body Paraganglioma, Carotid Body Paragangliomas, Carotid Body Tumors, Paragangliomas, Carotid Body, Tumor, Carotid Body, Tumors, Carotid Body
Carotid Sinus - 새창 The dilated portion of the common carotid artery at its bifurcation into external and internal carotids. It contains baroreceptors which, when stimulated, cause slowing of the heart, vasodilatation, and a fall in blood pressure.
Synonyms : Sinus, Carotid
Carotid Stenosis - 새창 Narrowing or stricture of the internal, common, or external carotid artery, most often as a result of atherosclerotic plaque formation. Ulcerations may form in atherosclerotic plaques and induce thrombus formation. Platelet or cholesterol emboli may arise from stenotic carotid lesions and induce a transient ischemic attack (ISCHEMIC ATTACK, TRANSIENT) or CEREBROVASCULAR ACCIDENT. Emboli which travel to the eye may manifest as AMAUROSIS FUGAX (temporary blindness). (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp822-3)
Synonyms : Carotid Artery Plaque, Carotid Artery Stenosis, Carotid Artery Ulcerating Plaque, Common Carotid Artery Stenosis, External Carotid Artery Stenosis, Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis, Plaque, Ulcerating, Carotid Artery, Stenosis, Common Carotid Artery
Carotid-Cavernous Sinus Fistula - 새창 Laceration of the intracavernous portion of the carotid artery or one of its intracavernous branches resulting in a direct communication between the internal carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. Clinically, this produces a pulsatile exophthalmus and a marked limitation of extraocular motion in the affected eye. CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA, especially basilar skull fractures (SKULL FRACTURE, BASILAR) is the most common cause of this condition, but it may also occur spontaneously or in association with diseases featuring defective connective tissue, such as EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p877)
