Stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in North America, affecting over half a million patients at a cost of over $30 billion a year. Depending on the population studied, extracranial internal carotid artery stenosis accounts for approximately 10–15% of ischemic strokes. Aside from these symptomatic cases, large population-based

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

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1988
Many patients with carotid artery disease experience a diversity of ocular symptoms (Table). Thus, the ophthalmologist (1) is often the first physician to see the patient or (2) is asked to act as a consultant to identify structural disease, to confirm or to exclude the presence of retinal emboli, or to perform noninvasive tests reflecting the patency ...

Vascular Medicine, 2014 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.

Symptomatic Carotid Artery Disease: Revascularization
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2017Patients with symptomatic carotid artery disease should be managed by a multidisciplinary team including neurologists, vascular surgeons and interventionalists. Duplex ultrasound is the most widely used diagnostic modality to assess carotid disease, followed by additional imaging tests (CT- or MR-angiography) to confirm the severity of the stenosis ...

Carotid artery disease and cognitive impairment
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2012The term neurologic symptom usually relates to the loss of motor or sensory functions; cognitive deficit is mostly unrecognized in patients with severe carotid stenosis. In large population studies carotid stenosis has been shown as independent risk factor for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and it was not due to underlying vascular risk factors.
