Carotid artery resection has been shown to yield a chance of cure in patients with advanced head and neck carcinoma involving the carotid artery. Interposition grafting covered with a muscle flap minimizes the risk of neurologic morbidity after resection, although it is technically difficult when there is involvement of the internal carotid artery close to the skull base. An extracranial-intracranial bypass may minimize the risk of neurologic morbidity in such cases; however, bypass surgery itself carries a risk of complications. We analyzed the results of carotid artery resection and discussed methods to reduce the risk.
