Abstrakt:	Carotid diaphragm is a rare cause of stroke. Because of its rarity, it remains often undiagnosed. We report the case of four patients who presented a stroke due to carotid diaphragm. The diagnosis was made either by ultrasound Doppler, computed tomography-angiography or angiography. Two of the four patients were managed by carotid stenting and the other two by surgery. The follow-up was normal. Carotid diaphragm stroke is associated with a high risk of recurrence if not well managed. Therefore, the knowledge of this rare entity is necessary. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
