概要	Persistent primitive hypoglossal artery (PPHA) is a persistent carotid-basilar anastomosis. It rarely remains at birth. It occasionally may be a risk for ischemia and embolic infarction to the posterior cerebral circulation, especially in patients with carotid stenosis proximal to the origin of persistent primitive arteries. We describe a case of a 60-year-old woman with asymptomatic internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis and ipsilateral PPHA successfully treated by carotid artery stenting (CAS). A few cases of CAS for ICA stenosis with PPHA have been reported, but the strategy and methods in each case were different because of its unique anatomy and hemodynamics. It is essential to prevent distal embolisms and preserve blood flow at the territory of both the ICA and PPHA. The protection method should be selected carefully. We review the literature and discuss appropriate treatment strategies.
