156 CAROTID TREATMENT: PRINCIPLES AND TECHNIQUES

Secure Ligation of the Common Facial Vein
In this illustration the common facial vein has been isolated, double-ligated, and the ligatures have been backed up with medium Weck clips. The vein will now be cauterized with the bipolar before it is divided. I have often seen the silk ties work down and break away from the cut facial vein ends, and without a Weck clip backup this could cause pesky bleeding. Similarly, please note the double Weck clip strategy on each end; I have also seen single Weck clips work loose.

Minor Branches of Facial Vein
Once the common facial vein has been ligated, clipped, and cauterized, dissection proceeds up and down the medial border of the jugular vein to open the carotid sheath and identify the underlying common carotid artery (CCA). It is particularly important at this stage to use a “no-touch” type of technique to avoid dislodging any atheromatous material from the carotid artery by harsh manipulation. I administer 5,000 units of intravenous heparin as soon as the CCA is rst visualized within the carotid sheath.
In this example, an accessory branch of the internal jugular vein identied at a somewhat more caudal loca­tion than the common facial vein is being doubly ligated. It is crucial to identify these branches so that they are not inadvertently torn when the jugular vein is retracted, particularly after heparin has been administered. After ligation of all of these branches, the jugular vein can be retracted if necessary with a blunt Weitlaner retractor to further expose the underlying CCA and carotid bulb.

Dissection behind the Parotid Gland
Once the platysma has been divided, it is useful to prepare the incision for a high exposure in nearly every case so that a difcult ICA repair will not necessitate returning to the supercial tissues for exposure during a critical time in the procedure. I prefer to come down the subcutaneous tissues with the electrocautery set on coagulat­ing current; I nd that this dissects down the medial sternocleidomastoid edge to the jugular vein quite nicely and hemostatically. As this is done in the cephalad end of the incision, the parotid gland will be encountered in the soft gritty tissues. I prefer to scoop behind the gland with the cautery tip, freeing it to be held forward by the hinged modied Richards retractor. This gives a nice exposure of the underlying high complex, including the jugular vein, hypoglossal nerve, and ICA as well as the digastric muscle. If the gland is transected, too much of it remains posteriorly, which obscures the view, and the risk of sialorrhea or facial nerve injury is increased.
Here the artwork demonstrates all of the anatomy in the region of the parotid gland while the photograph illustrates the plane between the gland [labeled with a (G) and held at its posterior margin by the vascular for­ceps] and the sternomastoid muscle. (The tendinous insertion on the mastoid process is well demonstrated here.)

First Demonstration of Common Carotid Artery with Control
In this left CEA, the jugular vein is retracted and the carotid sheath is opened after administration of heparin to give the rst exposure of the CCA. Before dissecting up into the carotid bulb and the internal and external carotid arteries, I ascertain that an adequate segment of CCA has been isolated and prepared for cross-clamping. I then establish control by passing a vessel loop around it with a right-angled mosquito clamp, and I secure this with a Rummel tourniquet, which is necessary in the event a shunt must be placed. Gaining control of the CCA at this stage ensures that any inadvertent misadventure into the carotid branches during further dissection can be quickly controlled by securing the CCA with a cross-clamp. Fortunately, however, this complication is rare. Dissection then proceeds up into the region of the carotid bulb and then up both the external and internal carotid arteries by separate incisions along the carotid sheath.
When dissecting in and about the carotid bulb, I notify the anesthesiologists in case any changes occur in blood pressure or heart rate. This is an extremely rare occurrence. I do not typically inltrate the carotid sinus but will do so with 1% plain xylocaine if it appears that the patient’s physiologic parameters are unusually sus­ceptible to dissection of the carotid bifurcation region.

First CCA Control with 0 Silk Tie and Rummel Tourniquet
Here is a later illustration of the rst isolation of the CCA and control with a 0 silk tie and the Rummel tourni­quet. Note that Fig. 4-16 shows the CCA isolated with a vessel loop, a practice that we have abandoned in recent years. On occasion the vessel loop that we previously used was too elastic to snug tightly around the CCA, and we had some bleeding. After switching to the 0 silk tie, we are able to pull it up tighter around the CCA, without stretching, and this problem has been solved. This photo also is a good demonstration of our new technique for exposure, using a exible ring and elastic LoneStar sh-hooks, rather than rigid retractors as we previously did. This exposure is further discussed in Fig. 4-19.
