Zusammenfassung: | <jats:p> Pulsatile tinnitus may result from turbulent flow within the internal carotid artery (ICA). Atherosclerotic carotid stenosis is a rare but well-known cause of pulsatile tinnitus. The classical treatment was endarterectomy or ligation for proximal ICA disease or stenting for distal ICA lesions. Endovascular techniques offer new ways to treat atherosclerotic vascular stenosis lesions. We describe two cases of pulsatile tinnitus caused by stenosis within the petrous segment of the ICA and treated by stent-assisted angioplasty. </jats:p> |
