Large arteries of the carotid and vertebrobasilar systems may occasionally become enlarged and tortuous. This process is called by a variety ofnames, the most common of which are dolichoectasia (from the Greek words dolichos, meaning ""elongation,"" and ectasia, meaning ""distension""), ectasia, and fusiform aneurysm. Some authors simply describe such arteries as ""tortuous."" |
