A rare anatomic variation with clinical significance: Occipital and ascending pharyngeal arteries branching from cervical segment of internal carotid artery. Turk Gogus Kalp Dama 2018;26(4):679-680. Cite this article as: A 60-year-old male was admitted to the neurology department with the chief complaint of dizziness. He suffered from intermittent dizziness for the last four years without any other complaint. We performed computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the head and neck arteries with the suspicion of vertebrobasilar insufficiency, and detected two variant artery branches, originating from the proximal cervical segment of the right internal carotid artery (ICA). The trajectories of these two arteries were compatible with those of the occipital artery (OA) and ascending pharyngeal artery (APA). The latter is the second and the anterior branch of external carotid artery (ECA), and it contributes to vascularization of the oropharynx, nasopharynx, eustachian tube, middle ear, and skull base. The OA is the fifth and the posterior branch of ECA, supplies blood to the back of the scalp, sternomastoid muscles, and deep muscles of the neck.
