We describe a case of an asymptomatic 70-year-old female patient on whom a carotid ultrasound examination was performed that showed intima–media thickening and a 4 mm long carotid web with a 50% web-to-bulb ratio. Spectral Doppler waveform demonstrated a turbulent flow pattern and a peak systolic velocity increase of 100% (velocity ratio = 2) when compared with the common carotid artery. Therefore, the patient seemed to be at risk of stroke, and antiaggregant treatment was suggested.

Here, we describe the case of an asymptomatic 70-year-old male patient who performed a contrast-enhanced computed tomography examination for prostate cancer staging, and an exceptional finding was reported. Specifically, a probable and never before reported minimal V aortic arch remnant with a thin intima–media band that joins together the anterior and posterior aortic walls.

Here, we describe a case of an asymptomatic 73-year-old female patient who suffered from type A acute aortic dissection with epiaortic arteries involvement and underwent surgical operation 9 years ago. A follow-up color Doppler ultrasound revealed a right vertebral artery intermittent flow reversal due to innominate artery dissection. To our knowledge, no previous studies have reported this intermittent flow reversal; therefore, supra-aortic trunks should be considered among the possible causes of vertebral artery flow reversal.
