Abstract
Carotid artery stenosis is the
important causes of ischemic stroke, and it may result in death. Many complications can occur during carotid
endarterectomy (CEA), which is the standard revascularization procedure for
treating severe carotid artery stenosis. CEA is applied for prevention of stroke occurred
by atherosclerotic plaque which is located at the common carotid artery
bifurcation and, commonly, internal carotid artery. In addition to serious
complications, such as stroke, infection, myocardial
infarction, postoperative bleeding and
death, non-fatal complications, such as cranial nerve palsy, can also occur
rarely. Cranial nerve injury is a well-recognized complication' of carotid
endarterectomy. Although major injuries are rare, in several series where
thorough pre and postoperative neurologic examinations were performed, the
incidence of cranial nerve dysfunction after carotid surgery ranged from 9.7%
to 39%
Here we present the an 80-year-old
male patient with hypoglossal nerve palsy after carotid endarterectomy as it is
a rare complication.
