Transient Perivascular Inflammation of the Carotid Artery: A Rare Clinical Entity of Carotidynia
Transient Perivascular Inflammation of the Carotid Artery (TIPIC) is considered an infrequent cause for unilateral neck pain. There is also much debate and controversy regarding the differentiation and the correctness of the terms TIPIC and Carotidynia.
