- Abstract: Hyoid-related carotid artery diseases represent rare clinical entities,encompassing conditions such as carotid atherosclerotic plaque formation,mural thrombosis,carotid artery dissec-tion,carotid stenosis or occlusion,and carotid pseudoaneurysm.Unstable plaques and thrombi may dislodge under external force,leading to middle cerebral artery stenosis or embolism,triggering ische-mic cerebrovascular events.This study reported a related case and explored its clinical characteris-tics,pathogenic mechanisms,and potential risk factors through a review of relevant literature.
