We experienced a patient with acute progressing 且oating thrombus ( FT ) in the cervical carotid artery ( CCA ) . A66 − year − old man presented with a transient ocular ischemic attack and was treated with oral antiplatelets just after diagnosis of a mild − grade stenosis of the left carotid artery by ultrasound scan ( US ) . But during 6 days after the onset , several ocular ischemic attacks occurred and repeated carotid US revealed a pulsatile FT on the lesion . Thirteen days later , despite the patient being placed on anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy , carotid US demonstrated no remarkable regression of the 且oating thrombus . The patient underwent carotid artery stenting using intraprocedual carotid US , which was valuable to visualize the safe conduit through the floating thrombus . The details of the procedure were described . (
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
