Abstract

Bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion is a relatively rare condition which is generally characterized with a poor prognosis. Each new case is of particular interest in relation to the activation of the compensatory mechanisms of cerebral blood flow. This article presents a case of bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion, accompanied by developing collaterals between the internal and external carotid arteries. The pathological processes leading to bilateral occlusion of the internal carotid arteries are discussed and the main ways of collateral circulation between the internal and external carotid arteries are described.
