Fig. 2

Sagittal CT (A1) and coronal 3D rotational (A2) angiography showed a linear filling defect located in the posterior internal carotid artery bulb consistent with a CaW (white arrow) and a vertically elongated hypodensity partially attached to the below carotid wall consistent with CFFT (asterisk-marked arrow). Intraoperative DSA and 3D reconstruction confirmed the presence of a CaW (arrow) on sagittal (B1) and coronal (B2) projections. Post-operative DSA showing appropriate stent placement and flow restoration on sagittal (C1) and coronal (C2) projections. CFFT: carotid free-floating thrombus. CaW: carotid web. DSA: digital subtraction angiography
