Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. He has history of cancer in carotid body. It was operated and some fibrous scar tissue may leads to twisted carotid artery. If at present no any other problems or symptoms then its ok. No any treatment is required for that. Just be relaxed. If you have any symptoms then tell me about that.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
