Stenting for carotid artery stenosis [PDF]

open access: possibleNature Clinical Practice Neurology, 2007
Stenting has increasingly been used for the treatment of carotid artery stenosis, although it is still unknown whether it is as safe and successful as carotid endarterectomy. Several studies have been published, and the preliminary results have been variable, with evidence both in favor of and against this procedure.

Karotisstenose

Der Chirurg, 2007
Since 2004, several large randomized trials have provided important data about the comparison of carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting of more than 2,000 patients with predominantly symptomatic carotid artery stenosis. None of these trials demonstrated clearly an equivalent periprocedural risk of both techniques.

Symptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis

Seminars in Neurology, 2014
The management of patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis remains controversial. Randomized controlled studies established the value of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) over optimal medical therapy for patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis.

Carotid stenosis, stroke, and carotid artery revascularization

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2021
Atherosclerotic disease of the carotid artery places patients at risk of ischemic stroke and consequently is a target of medical, endovascular and open surgical management. Various imaging modalities are used to characterize anatomy/severity of carotid disease and justify intervention, each having advantages and disadvantages. Carotid revascularization

Carotid artery stenosis in correlation with neck and carotid artery anatomy

Vascular, 2021
Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between neck anatomy, especially its largest muscle – sternocleidomastoid and carotid space, with carotid artery anatomy and stenosis. Methods We analysed 102 computed tomography carotid angiograms.

Carotid artery stenosis

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2003
Qureshi and colleagues report the results of a prospective longitudinal pilot registry to test the short-term (30-day) and intermediate-term (1-year) safety and efficacy of a novel coiled sheet stent used for extracranial carotid artery (CA) angioplasty and stent placement.

Carotid Artery Stenosis

2019
Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the most common cause of disability. Most strokes are ischemic and can be prevented by carotid revascularization. At the present time, indications for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) include asymptomatic stenosis of more than 80% or symptomatic stenosis of more than 50%.

Carotid artery stenosis

2018
Carotid disease is often asymptomatic but can lead to strokes, transient ischaemic attacks (TIA), or amaurosis fugax. This chapter explores the pathogenesis of the disease and examines the investigations often used to diagnose the severity of the carotid stenosis.
