14. Acute Carotid Thrombosis
๏ Complication of endarterectomy/ stenting
๏ Acute progression of Carotid stenosis
โ Culpritโ lesion in an acute stroke

18. Acute Carotid Thrombosis
๏ Thrombus is heterogenously echogenic/ or very
hypo-echoic
๏ Calibre of vessel is normal or expanded
๏ Pulsations in vessel wall but NO FLOW
๏ Swirling, sludge like flow in Carotid bulb
23. Free Floating Thrombus
๏ Broad Base towards vessel wall
๏ Tongue like projection
๏ Oscillation with blood flow
24. Carotid Dissection
๏ Due to hemorrhage into the intima with extension into
sub-intimal and sub-adventitial layers
๏ Type A Dissection of Aortic Arch
45. Femoral Pseudoaneurysm
๏ โBubble like Anechoic /hypoechoic structure attached
to artery
๏ Cylindrical neck along needle track
๏ Bubble measures 1-3 cms
๏ Neck variable length and width
46. Femoral Pseudoaneurysm
๏ Swirling pattern within pseudo-aneurysm-----Yin-
Yang
๏ To and Fro flow in the neck
๏ Rarely only neck show flow

55. Treatment
๏ USG guided compression- Upto 75% success
> Ihr compression
> painful
Thrombin Injection-99% success
0.5-1ml 0f 1000 IU/ml
Inadvertent injection into artery/vein very rare
56. Hematoma
๏ Natural Outcome of Vascular Disruption
๏ Due to poor Compression
๏ Ecchymosis and Discomfort
๏ Rarely large compressing the artery and nerve roots
๏ Retroperitoneal and pelvic extention, Compartment
syndrome

60. Haemotoma
๏ Initially Echogenic / hypo-echoic well/ill defined area
๏ Later becomes more well-defined and anechoic
๏ Initial scan โexact measurements and even skin
marking
61. Acute Limb Ischemia
๏ Embolic- Heart, Aorta, Iliac arteries, Aneurysm
๏ Thrombosis over an existing plaque
Symptom onset is usually rapid-severe claudication, rest
pain, sensory loss and colour change
Depends upon collaterals
79. Diagnoses
๏ Case 1- Superficial Femoral artery occlusion due to
atherosclerosis with significant small vessel disease
๏ Case 2- Acute Distal Subclavian Artery Occlusion
๏ Case 3-Significant Radial Artery Compromise
