contents The Einstein-Cartan (EC) theory of gravity provides a natural extension of general relativity by incorporating spacetime torsion to account for the intrinsic spin of matter. In this work, we investigate Yukawa-Casimir traversable wormholes supported by three distinct Yukawa-Casimir energy density profiles within the framework of EC gravity. The resulting shape functions are shown to satisfy all the fundamental requirements for traversable wormhole geometries. Our analysis reveals that the presence of exotic matter is unavoidable in sustaining these wormholes, and we quantify its total amount through the volume integral quantifier. Furthermore, the equilibrium of the wormhole configurations is established by examining the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation. To enhance the physical relevance of the present work, we study several key features of the wormholes, including the embedding surface, proper radial distance, tidal forces, and total gravitational energy. In addition, we analyze the optical properties of wormholes by examining both the shadow and the strong deflection angle. All the findings collectively demonstrate the physical plausibility of Yukawa-Casimir traversable wormholes within the EC gravity framework.
