Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the anatomy of the External Carotid Artery (ECA) and identifies a rare variant where the Occipital Artery (OA) and Ascending Pharyngeal Artery (APA) originate from the Internal Carotid Artery (ICA) instead of the typical ECA branches.
- Dissection of 28 formaldehyde donors revealed this variation in one case, specifically on the right side, with a notable bifurcation angle of nearly 180 degrees.
- The findings highlight the importance of recognizing this variation for surgeons and radiologists, improving procedural planning and reducing complications in head and neck surgeries.
