Arteriograms performed in the Interventional Management of Stroke studies were analyzed for external carotid artery embolus. Two cases were identified and diagnosed as thromboembolic due to a cardiac origin. This is an uncommon but useful finding on angiography which is helpful for further management. It is hypothesized that finding embolus within the external carotid artery on angiography in stroke patients with internal carotid artery occlusion allows confident ascription to a proximal, usually cardiac, source.
对介入性卒中管理研究中的动脉造影进行了分析，以寻找颈外动脉栓子。发现了 2 个病例，并诊断为心源性血栓栓塞。这是血管造影中一种不常见但有用的发现，有助于进一步治疗。据推测，在颈内动脉闭塞的卒中患者的颈外动脉造影中发现栓子，可以明确栓子来自近端，通常是心脏。
