A patient with long-segment occlusion of the right carotid artery. (A and B) Cerebral angiography showed occlusion of the right carotid artery. (C) Carotid endarterectomy was performed to remove the clot occluding the carotid artery. The clot was white organized at the carotid bifurcation and proximal segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA), old dark red in the middle ICA and old red in the distal ICA segment. (D and E) Immediately after stenting with two stents, the carotid artery was patent. (F) Six-month follow-up with computed tomographic angiography demonstrated patient carotid artery.
