266 CAROTID TREATMENT: PRINCIPLES AND TECHNIQUES

4-67
Opening of External Carotid Artery—Part 1: Inadequate Feathering
Marsupialization of the plaque from the ECA is usually sufcient to ensure a clean break-off. However, if frag­ments can be palpated or a rough edge can be demonstrated on inspection of the endarterectomized ECA with a curved clamp, I do not hesitate to open the ECA with a separate arteriotomy that begins at the carotid bifur­cation, extends straight up the ECA, and is performed in the same fashion as the ICA arteriotomy, creating a Y-shaped arteriotomy defect that needs to be closed in that manner. Inattention to detail in the performance of the ECA endarterectomy can be the source of thrombus formation and later embolization up the ICA, or it may lead to a dissection of the ECA (illustrated in Fig. 3-21), which may ultimately cause thrombosis of the entire carotid tree with devastating consequences for the patient.
In the case illustrated here, the ECA has been opened as a separate limb of the original arteriotomy. The Peneld No. 4 dissector reveals a tail of plaque, which was incompletely removed in the marsupialization tech­nique and which now must be dissected free, well up the ECA to the level of the bulldog clamp in just the same fashion as for the ICA endarterectomy. Likewise, if plaque appears to extend beyond the bulldog clamp, this can be released briey, allowing the plaque to be pulled back for a clean distal break-off. I cannot emphasize strongly enough the need for attention to detail in the performance of the ECA endarterectomy and would urge that the ECA be opened in every case in which even the slightest concern exists regarding thorough plaque removal.

Opening of External Carotid Artery—Part 2: Inadequate Feathering
This is another illustration of, in this case, a right CEA in which the ECA was opened as a separate arteriotomy. An area of rough plaque that did not readily marsupialize can be seen right at the orice of the ECA. I thought a formal endarterectomy was necessary to adequately clean up the ECA and, as shown in this gure, made a separate incision directly up the ECA to the level of the 2-0 silk tie.

Opening of External Carotid Artery Because of Poor Doppler Signal
In this case, I had completed the internal carotid repair with Hemashield patch grafting. On nal auscultation (after de-clamping), the Doppler signal from the ECA was high-pitched consistent with persistent stenosis. For­tunately, a shunt had not been required. The clamps were reapplied and the ECA was opened over a short distal segment and residual plaque was removed. Following this strategy, as previously illustrated, a primary ECA repair without patch graft was performed, although in this case it did not extend back to the carotid bulb.

Opening of External Carotid Artery—Repair
This is a left CEA in which it was necessary to open and repair the ECA as a separate incision. In this case, the common to internal carotid arteriotomy remains open and the denuded area of vascular wall following plaque removal can be seen. A suture line is begun in the ECA and brought down in continuous, non-locking fashion to the region of the carotid bulb where it is secured to a separately thrown single 6-0 Prolene stitch. The long tail of this stitch is then tied to one of the limbs of the main suture line when the common and internal carotid arteries are repaired. It is important to note that when I do open the ECA separately, I repair it rst since there is a rather limited amount of time available for completion of the arterial suture line at the junction of the common and internal arteries, particularly in shunted cases.

Completed External Carotid Artery Repair in a Case with Internal Carotid Artery Hemashield Patch
This photograph shows the nal result in a case where an ICA Hemashield patch was used and the ECA was opened secondarily for poor Doppler signal. The eld is dry and the repair is secure at both the primary and the patch closure sites. The clamps have been removed and ow is re-established with no bleeding or leaks.
This photograph also illustrates well the use of the four retention sutures to hold open the carotid sheath and improve the vascular exposure.
