Carotid Artery Disease

2020
Atherosclerosis with carotid plaque-induced luminal narrowing causes asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (ACAS) in ~10% of older adults and the vast majority remain undetected (de Weerd et al., Stroke 40(4):1105–1113, 2009; O’Leary et al., Stroke 23(12):1752–1760, 1992).

Carotid-Artery Disease

New England Journal of Medicine, 1986
Few medical issues are more controversial than carotid endarterectomy. The subject has been featured in the general press and on prime-time television; dispute has been encouraged between surgeon and nonsurgeon, with "needless surgery" a refrain poorly concealed in the background. These debates usually have more passion than substance.

Carotid artery occlusive disease

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
Stroke is the third most common cause of death and the leading cause of disability in the United States. Management of identifiable risk factors and careful selection of patients for operative intervention constitute the current approach to reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with stroke.

Carotid artery disease after head and neck radiotherapy.

VASA. Zeitschrift fur Gefasskrankheiten, 2015
Radiation induced atherosclerosis of the carotid artery is a clinically relevant late complication after head and neck radiotherapy. Improved long-term survival after multimodality therapy in neck malignancies result in an increased risk of carotid ...

The Electroretinogram in Carotid Artery Disease

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1962
The value of ophthalmodynamometry as a diagnostic aid in carotid artery disease has been established and so have its limitations.1-6 The use of electroretinography for clinical evaluation of the carotid artery system was suggested by previous studies in animals7,8and in 1 human subject.9Granit demonstrated a selective disappearance of theb-wave during

Carotid Artery Disease

2017
Abstract Carotid artery atherosclerotic disease is a well-established risk factor for ischemic stroke. While often asymptomatic, the disease could present with symptoms resulting from low hemodynamic pressure in the carotid system or from emboli arising from carotid plaque.

Carotid Artery Occlusive Disease

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2013
Carotid disease is a major contributor to stroke, one of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. Clinically significant stenosis can be detected by duplex ultrasound using well-established criteria. In addition to optimal medical management, surgical and endovascular revascularizations of carotid disease have been demonstrated ...

Diseases of the intrapetrous carotid artery

Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1988
In the early years of skull base surgery, total tumor removal was often deemed impossible due to involvement of the intrapetrous carotid artery. In contrast, previously considered unresectable lesions may be removed totally in selected cases, with reasonable expectation of successful treatment at the present time.

Carotid Artery Disease

The Diabetes Educator, 1985
Because macroangiopathy is a ma jor complication of diabetes, evalua tion of the carotid arteries for possible obstruction is of primary importance. Patients with transient ischemic at tacks, a precursor of strokes, are liable to have either a mechanical reduction of flow secondary to stenosis or a re lease of emboli from extracranial plaques.
