Abstract Carotid artery disease is a common cause of ischemic stroke and is often associated with atherosclerotic risk factors. Symptomatic carotid artery disease usually leads to anterior circulation neurologic deficits (eg, aphasia, contralateral hemiparesis and sensory deficits from middle cerebral artery ischemia, ipsilateral ...

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. After a

Symptomatic Carotid Artery Disease and Carotid Endarterectomy
Annual Review of Medicine, 1988Mi\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, Carotid Endarterectomy, and Behavior
Archives of Neurology, 1980Thirty-five carotid endarterectomy patients and 17 peripheral vascular surgery controls were evaluated psychologically preoperatively and postoperatively. The endarterectomy sample was restricted to patients with transient ischemic attacks. Neuropsychological tests included measures of language, attention, memory, problem solving, and sensory and motor

Microembolism in Carotid Artery Disease
Echocardiography, 1996Abnormal 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.

Carotid and Vertebral Artery Disease
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2013Extracranial carotid artery disease is commonly seen in patients presenting with stroke symptoms. It is also a frequent incidental finding in patients undergoing evaluation as part of a routine examination in the outpatient setting. Several diagnostic imaging modalities are currently available.

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.

Optometry clinics : the official publication of the Prentice Society, 1994
Carotid artery disease is often implicated in primary ischemic stroke secondary to thrombosis or embolism and may indicate concurrent cardiovascular disease. Atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of the majority of strokes. It is highly correlated with carotid artery disease because it occurs most often at the bifurcation of the common carotids ...

Endarterectomy in Carotid Artery Disease
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1987To the Editor.— The conclusions and recommendations for patient selection for carotid endarterectomy advanced by Matchar and Pauker1cannot be accepted because they ignore the most important fact: carotid endarterectomy has never been shown to be of any value for any patient under any circumstances. The authors admit that the only randomized controlled
