Bilateral carotid artery roughness is a phenomenon during imaging, most often seen in inflammation, elevated blood lipids, plaque formation and so on.
1. Inflammation: Bilateral carotid artery roughness is considered to be caused by arterial inflammation, and generally refers to aortitis, which may cause vascular stenosis or even occlusion, thus leading to carotid artery lesions.
2. Elevated blood lipid: when the patient’s blood lipid is elevated, it will cause damage to the endothelial cells of the blood vessels, and further lipid deposition will occur, which will lead to bilateral carotid artery lesions and gross phenomenon.
3. Plaque formation: generally refers to the carotid artery vessel wall atherosclerosis lesions, the brittleness of blood vessels will increase, thus forming plaque.
When there is bilateral carotid artery roughness, it is recommended to go to the hospital in a timely manner, under the guidance of the doctor to further improve the relevant examination, to clarify the cause of the disease, and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
