0 one of two arteries (= thick tubes carrying blood from the heart) that pass up through your neck and take blood to your brain -- 頸動脈（通過頸部的兩條動脈之一，將血液由心臟送到大腦）
To achieve this, large cannulae are placed into the jugular veins and a carotid artery.
A carotid-to-femoral arteriovenous shunt connecting a guiding catheter to a femoral vein introducer is then used to create reversal of flow in the carotid artery.
The brain stem is supplied by the carotid artery, the latter being closely related to the tympanic membrane.
She had an 8 mm conduit inserted between left carotid artery and descending aorta for residual gradient 3 weeks later.
The origin of the left common carotid artery is also involved.
She developed a right hemiparesis the following day, either from occlusion of the left carotid artery or from embolus.
Note the catheter in the left carotid artery to monitor position (left panel).
Blood was collected in the right atrium and reinjected in the right primitive carotid artery after ligature of the distal segment.
