European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2005Co-Authors: N. K. Shyamkumar, Sukria Nayak, Sunil Agarwal, Benjamin PerakathAbstract:Aneurysms of collateral arteries are unusual. A case of Transverse Cervical Artery aneurysm as the sole presentation of vascular thoracic outlet syndrome is presented and the relevant literature reviewed.

Revisiting the Transverse Cervical Artery and Vein for Complex Head and Neck Reconstruction
2019Co-Authors: Eitan Prisman, Peter Baxter, Eric M GendenAbstract:Background Chemoradiotherapy is the primary treatment modality for glottic and pharyngeal subsites. Management of recurrence or second primaries in this setting is a surgical challenge requiring complex free flap reconstruction. One of the major barriers to effective reconstruction is the availability of suitable recipient vessels. We propose that the Transverse Cervical Artery (TCA) is a viable option for complex head and neck reconstruction. Methods A retrospective chart review of 230 consecutive free tissue reconstructive cases was performed by the senior author (EG). Results Forty cases were identified that used the TCA for arterial anastomosis. Twenty-six patients had prior treatment, 13 of which had multimodality treatment. There were no microvasculature free flap failures and 5 minor flap complications. Conclusions Our experience with the TCA suggests it is a viable option for complex head and neck reconstruction, particularly in the setting of prior comprehensive neck dissection or radiation. In addition, the location of the TCA provides favorable pedicle geometry for microvascular anastomosis.

vessel depleted neck techniques for achieving microvascular reconstruction
Head and Neck-journal for The Sciences and Specialties of The Head and Neck, 2008Co-Authors: Adam S Jacobson, Eunice Park, Benjamin Roman, Jean Anderson Eloy, Eric M GendenAbstract:Background. In the neck, the recipient vessels most frequently used for microsurgical reconstruction are compromised by prior surgery and radiation. Methods. We conducted a retrospective chart review of all patients who underwent microvascular reconstruction between July 2001 and June 2005. Donor vessels, vein grafts, and flap survival were examined. Results. Fourteen of 197 patients (7%) were identified with a vessel-depleted neck. All patients had undergone a prior neck dissection and radiation (100%) or chemoradiation (42%). Free flap revascularization was achieved using the Transverse Cervical Artery with a vein graft and a cephalic vein (4 patients), thoracoacromial Artery and cephalic vein (3 patients), internal mammary Artery and vein (3 patients), and inferior thyroid Artery and cephalic vein (1 case). In 3 patients, the reverse flow thoracodorsal Artery and cephalic vein were used to vascularize the scapular flap. Conclusion. The cephalic vein, Transverse Cervical, internal mammary, and thoracoacromial vessels represent reliable alternatives in the vessel-depleted neck. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck, 2008

Traumatic false aneurysm of the subclavian Artery treated by insertion of Memotherm stent.
European journal of radiology, 2001Co-Authors: Josip Mašković, Vedran Radonić, Stipan Janković, Liana Cambj-sapunar, Ž Mimica, A BačićAbstract:Traumatic aneurysms of the left subclavian Artery and Transverse Cervical Artery, subsequent to penetrating gunshot wound were diagnosed by angiography in 35-year-old patient. Subclavian Artery aneurysm was treated by insertion of the Memotherm bare stent, whereas the false aneurysm of the Transverse Cervical Artery was embolized with Gianturco's coils. The follow up examinations at 6 and 12 months showed good patency of subclavian Artery.
