Carotid Artery Tortuosity Is Associated with Connective Tissue Diseases.
Welby JP, Kim ST, Carr CM, Lehman VT, Rydberg CH, Wald JT, Luetmer PH, Nasr DM, Brinjikji W. Welby JP, et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 2019 Oct;40(10):1738-1743. doi: 10.3174/ajnr.A6218. Epub 2019 Sep 26. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 2019. PMID: 31558499 Free PMC article.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: There is a general assumption in the cerebrovascular literature that there is an association between carotid artery tortuosity and connective tissues disease; however, this has not been firmly established. The purpose of this study was …

The tortuous or kinked carotid artery: pathogenesis and clinical considerations. A historical review.
Leipzig TJ, Dohrmann GJ. Leipzig TJ, et al. Surg Neurol. 1986 May;25(5):478-86. doi: 10.1016/0090-3019(86)90087-x. Surg Neurol. 1986. PMID: 3515599 Review.
The significance and management of cervical carotid artery tortuosity are controversial. One hundred eighteen cases of angulation of the common carotid artery and over 800 cases of elongation of the internal carotid artery have been reported. ...

High-risk anatomic variables and plaque characteristics in carotid artery stenting.
Morgan CE, Lee CJ, Chin JA, Eskandari MK, Morasch MD, Rodriguez HE, Helenowski IB, Kibbe MR. Morgan CE, et al. Vasc Endovascular Surg. 2014 Oct-Nov;48(7-8):452-9. doi: 10.1177/1538574414551577. Epub 2014 Sep 23. Vasc Endovascular Surg. 2014. PMID: 25252921
Differences were noted between the sexes, with females having more common carotid artery tortuosity than males (34% vs 27%, P = .04). Females also had a trend toward more plaque calcification and more severe arch calcification than males. ...

Accuracy and utility of three-dimensional contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography in planning carotid stenting.
Timaran CH, Rosero EB, Valentine RJ, Modrall JG, Smith S, Clagett GP. Timaran CH, et al. J Vasc Surg. 2007 Aug;46(2):257-63; discussion 263-4. doi: 10.1016/j.jvs.2007.03.051. Epub 2007 Jun 28. J Vasc Surg. 2007. PMID: 17600659 Free article.
CAS was aborted in four patients (5%) due to unfavorable anatomy identified on CE-MRA, including prohibitive internal carotid artery tortuosity (n = 1), long string sign of the internal carotid artery (n = 2), and concomitant intracranial disease (n = 1). ...

Tortuous internal carotid artery narrowing pyriform sinus: two cases.
Ozcan KM, Ozcan I, Selcuk A, Pasaoglu L, Hatipoglu HG, Dere H. Ozcan KM, et al. Clin Imaging. 2008 May-Jun;32(3):220-2. doi: 10.1016/j.clinimag.2007.10.003. Clin Imaging. 2008. PMID: 18502350
Computed tomographic scans showed tortuous internal carotid artery in both patients. Awareness of the possible internal carotid artery tortuosity is very important to prevent serious complications during laryngeal and pharyngeal surgical procedures....
