Chassaignac tubercle (or the carotid tubercle) is the name given to the anterior tubercle of the transverse process of the sixth cervical vertebra, separating the carotid artery from the vertebral artery and against which the carotid artery may be compressed by the finger.

It is named for Charles Marie Édouard Chassaignac, French doctor. Applied aspect-in case of supraventricular tachycardia,the carotid artery can be massaged against this tubercle to relieve the symptoms.

The Chassaignac tubercle is used as a landmark by anesthesiologists for local anesthesia of the brachial plexus and the cervical plexus using the supraclavicular approach.

Focal transnasal approach to the upper, middle, and lower clivus.

Funaki T, Matsushima T, Peris-Celda M, Valentine RJ, Joo W, Rhoton AL Jr.Author information *Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida; ‡Department of Neurosurgery, Faculty of Medicine, Saga University, Saga, Japan.AbstractBACKGROUND: Carefully tailoring the transclival approach to the involved parts of the upper, middle, or lower clivus requires a precise understanding of the focal relationships of the clivus.

The efficacy of carotid tubercle as an anatomical landmark for identification of cervical spinal level in the anterior cervical surgery: comparison with preoperative C-arm fluoroscopy.

Lee JH, Lee JH, Lee HS, Lee DY, Lee DO.Author information Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Seoul Metropolitan Government Seoul National University Boramae Medical Center, Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.AbstractBACKGROUND: In cervical anterior approach, transverse skin incision is preferred due to cosmetic reasons. Precise skin incision is required to reach the surgery segment while minimizing soft tissue injury. Skin incision site is frequently identified using C-arm fluoroscopy or the carotid tubercle. Accordingly, this study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of skin incision using the carotid tubercle as a marker.
