[Vascular pathology in the extracranial segment of the carotid arteries in patients with various stages of vascular hypertension].
The aim of the work was to assess the frequency, localization and degree of pathological changes in the extracranial segment of carotid arteries in patients in different stages of hypertension by using ultrasonic diagnosis. The authors examined 115 hypertonic patients stage I and II and 95 hypertonic patients stage III according to the WHO classification. They compared the results with a group of 20 subjects, healthy from the clinical and biochemical aspect. The examinations were made by means of an Exhoflow II apparatus of Diagnostic Electronic Corporation, using the method described by Traubner (16). The findings in the control group were normal. In the hypertonic patients stage I and II in 15 (13%) mild, haemodynamically insignificant changes were recorded. In the hypertonics stage III 31 (32.6%) had a pathological finding, incl. 16 patients (16.8%) who had severe stenotic changes, serious from the haemodynamic aspect.
