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, 2000Stroke 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.

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.

The Electroretinogram in Carotid Artery Disease
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1962The 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

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, 2013Carotid 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, 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.

BACKGROUND Increased carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) predicts future vascular events in the general population. However, the relationship between IMT and chronic kidney disease (CKD) seldom was tested in subjects with early-stage CKD. STUDY

Intima-media thickness of carotid artery predicts cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients.
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2003BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Previous studies showed that patients with ESRD had increased intima-media thickness of the carotid artery (CA-IMT). In the present study, we
