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.

Diseases of the intrapetrous carotid artery
Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1988In 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.

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

The authors admit that the only randomized controlled

Cerebrovascular and carotid artery disease
Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 2001Cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs), or strokes, are a leading cause of disability in the United States. CVAs rank third to cardiovascular disease and cancer as a cause of death. CVAs are of 2 general types: 80% are ischemic in origin, and the remainder are hemorrhagic.

The vast majority of carotid artery lesions are of atherosclerotic origin. Other conditions such post-radiation vasculopathy, spontaneous or traumatic carotid artery dissection, Takayashu disease, fibromuscular dysplasia or Ehlers Danlos syndrome may affect the carotid artery but account for the minority of cases.

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).
