Carotid Ultrasonography in Carotid Artery Disease
Southern Medical Journal, 1984Real-time high resolution carotid ultrasonography was performed in 1,300 patients of whom 294 also had carotid arteriography, allowing evaluation of 586 extracranial carotid vessels. Of the 586 extracranial vessels studied, 411 were normal by arteriography; of these, 381 (93%) were also normal by ultrasonography or showed only superficial plaques.

Carotid-Subclavian Bypass and the Carotid Steal Phenomenon
Cardiovascular Surgery, 1995Twelve patients with patent carotid-subclavian bypass grafts were investigated by colour flow duplex imaging to look for a carotid steal. Centre-stream peak systolic flow velocities in the common carotid arteries distal to the take-off of the bypass graft were equivalent to those in the contralateral common carotid artery.

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2004
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been used for the past several decades in patients with carotid occlusive disease. Large randomized controlled trials have documented that CEA is a highly effective stroke preventive among patients with carotid stenosis and recent transient ischemic attack or cerebral infarction.

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1997The effect of clinical trials on clinical practice has been especially notable in the field of cerebrovascular surgery, and carotid endarterectomy in particular. Extensive data have been published from retrospective studies in cerebrovascular disease; the current focus on prospective randomized trials does not discount the validity of these prior ...

Angiography of the external carotid to internal carotid anastomosis
Neuroradiology, 1978The EC/IC bypass is being performed more and more, and angiography is essential as part of the postoperative evaluation. This review of 41 patients points out the need for selective external carotid angiography in those cases where intracranial vessels fill spontaneously at the same time as the shunt.

Carotid endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid stenosis
1999Whilst carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is of proven benefit in recently symptomatic patients with severe carotid stenosis, the role of carotid endarterectomy in preventing stroke in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis remains uncertain.The objective of this review therefore was to determine the effects of CEA for patients with asymptomatic carotid

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis
1999Severe narrowing (or stenosis) of the carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. Surgical removal of the atheromatous material from the inside of the carotid artery (endarterectomy) may reduce the risk of stroke, but carries a risk of operative complications.This review seeks to summarize the evidence from randomized trials on the balance of risks

Neurosurgery, 1993
The illumination and magnification provided by the operating microscope allow for the accurate and complete removal of atherosclerotic plaque from the carotid arterial wall, for precise arterial repair at the distal end of the internal carotid endarterectomy, and for a fine, nonstenosing arteriotomy closure.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2008
Carotid angioplasty and stenting is potentially an alternative to carotid endarterectomy in carotid stenosis, but it remains unclear whether it confers significant advantages over carotid endarterectomy. We reviewed evidence on carotid angioplasty and stenting in carotid stenosis.Carotid angioplasty and stenting is neither safer nor associated with ...

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2019
Doppler ultrasound (US) is the primary noninvasive imaging modality for detecting, grading, and monitoring extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, which is a well-established surrogate marker for stroke risk. In addition, Doppler US is the primary imaging modality for surveillance of patients following carotid intervention with ...
