Abstract WP205: Association Between Bovine Aortic Arch Anatomy and Carotid Artery Stenosis

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP205-AWP205, February 1, 2025. The bovine anatomical variation may alter the blood flow dynamics, potentially contributing to the formation and progression of carotid plaques. CTAs were reviewed to assess the carotid stenosis and the anatomy of the aortic arch.
