Anatomical variations of carotid arterial system, which are not infrequently encountered, have great impact on the surgical approaches of the neck. Although few reports on common carotid artery tortuosity have been published, no case of symptomatic concurrent common carotid and internal carotid artery tortuosity has been reported. Herein, we report the first case with concurrent common origin of the innominate trunk and left common carotid artery and common and internal carotid artery tortuosity presenting with an oropharyngeal mass.
颈动脉系统的解剖变异并不罕见,对颈部手术入路有很大影响。虽然关于颈总动脉迂曲的报道很少,但尚无有症状的颈总动脉和颈内动脉同时迂曲的病例报道。在此,我们报告首例无名动脉和左颈总动脉共同起源以及颈总动脉和颈内动脉同时迂曲并伴有口咽肿物的病例。
