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).
