Persistent primitive hypoglossal artery is a rare variant of intrauterine anastomosis between the carotid and basilar arteries, which may remain in adults. The presence of this artery in carotid artery atherosclerosis increases the risks for stroke in the carotid and basilar basins. Our clinical case illustrates successful carotid endarterectomy in the presence of an ipsilateral persistent primitive hypoglossal artery under cerebral oximetry control.
永存舌下动脉是颈内动脉和基底动脉在宫内吻合的罕见变异，可能在成人中仍然存在。这种动脉在颈动脉粥样硬化中存在会增加颈动脉和基底动脉区域中风的风险。我们的临床病例说明了在大脑氧饱和度监测下成功进行了同侧永存舌下动脉存在情况下的颈动脉内膜切除术。
