Presentation
We present the seventh case of ICA agenesis with transcavernous anastomosis associated with cerebral aneurysms. A 47-year-old man presented with transient numbness of his left hand. [asianjns.org]
We present three cases of agenesis of ICA associated with Horner’s syndrome and hypochromia iridum presenting as focal neurological symptoms. [dovepress.com]
These associations were not observed in the present case. The patient remained asymptomatic. [globaljournals.org]
We present a case of bilateral internal carotid artery segmental agenesis in an asymptomatic 18-year-old man. Embryology, common collateral pathways, clinical presentation, and clinical importance of this condition are discussed. [plu.mx]
The left common carotid artery was present, but it was thin. Computed tomography showed the absence of the left carotid canal. The left anterior cerebral artery was fed via the anterior communicating artery. [jstage.jst.go.jp]

Pharyngitis
Lasjaunias et al. [5] have suggested that the ICAs can be divided into six segments: cervical, petrous, vertical cavernous, horizontal cavernous, clinoid, and cisternal segments, which develop from the embryonic arteries: ventral pharyngeal, hyoid, mandibular [ijri.org]
Each of these segments displays a specific course and limits, defined by the origin of the following embryonic arteries: ventral pharyngeal hyoid, mandibular, primitive maxillary, trigeminal, dorsal ophthalmic and ventral ophthalmic. [file.scirp.org]

Etiology

The etiology of the abnormalities of the internal carotid artery is controversial, in general terms, among the causes of these changes are considered abnormal embryological development and loss of elasticity of the vessels with age, and however major [medical-case-reports.imedpub.com]
[…] agenesis is used when there is total failure of ICA formation in the embryo; aplasia, when a precursor is present in the embryo and is represented by a remnant such as a fibrous band; and hypoplasia, when a small caliber ICA is present. [1] The exact etiology [ijri.org]
They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]
This is thought to be related to increased and altered flow dynamics though the collateral vessels. [3] Although the exact etiology of the patient's symptoms remains unclear, we postulate that inflammation of the right carotid artery could be related [annalsofian.org]

Management included prevention of vascular risk factors such as smoking cessation, stopping estrogen-progestogens. The patient was put on KARDEGIC antiaggregant platelets, 160 mg, 1 per day and functional rehabilitation at home. [file.scirp.org]
