Robotic assisted carotid artery stenting for the treatment of symptomatic carotid disease: technical feasibility and preliminary results

Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2020
Background and purpose Robotic-assisted endovascular interventions have been increasingly performed in the coronary and peripheral vascular beds. We aim to describe the feasibility and initial safety of a robotic-assisted platform for treating carotid ...

Carotid Ultrasonography in Carotid Artery Disease

Southern Medical Journal, 1984
Real-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.

Snoring and carotid artery disease: A new risk factor emerges

The Laryngoscope, 2018
Previous studies have identified a relationship between snoring, carotid intima media thickening, and the presence of atherosclerosis. This study examines the correlation between snoring and carotid artery disease through use of duplex ultrasound ...

Microembolism in Carotid Artery Disease

Echocardiography, 1996
Abnormal high intensity transient signals detectable with transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography have been associated with formed cerebral microembolism. Using long‐term TCD monitoring, these clinically silent microembolic events can be observed in patients with cerebrovascular disease.

Symptomatic Carotid Artery Disease and Carotid Endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: possibleAnnual Review of Medicine, 1988
Mi\ler Fisher in 1951 described the signs and symptoms associated with occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) in the neck (1). Before then, most cerebral infarcts in the anterior circulation were attributed to thrombosis of thc middle cerebral artery (MCA). Fisher emphasized that the occlusive disease was extracranial and predicted that surgery

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

Surgery (Oxford), 2004
Abstract Stroke is the principal cause of persisting neurological disability in the ‘developed’ world. The most common cause of ischaemic carotid territory stroke is thromboembolism, usually from stenoses in the extracranial internal carotid artery.

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 ...
