Asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007Severe asymptomatic carotid stenosis is associated with a stroke risk of approximately 2% per annum. Aggressive management of risk factors is recommended, including cessation of smoking, and treatment of hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia. Patients should be treated with antiplatelet agents.

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.

A predictive surrogate model of blood haemodynamics for patient-specific carotid artery stenosis.
Journal of the Royal Society InterfaceIn this study, the haemodynamic factors inside the patient-specific carotid artery with stenosis are evaluated via a predictive surrogate model. The technique of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is used for reducing the order of the main model and ...

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.

Stenting for carotid artery stenosis
Nature Clinical Practice Neurology, 2007Stenting 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.

Carotid Artery Stenosis Following Endarterectomy
Archives of Surgery, 1982Duplex scanning and spectral analysis were used to detect carotid artery stenosis following 89 endarterectomies in 76 patients with a mean postoperative follow-up interval of 16 months. Operative arteriography was used in all cases to verify the technical result.

Surgery for carotid artery stenosis
Medical Journal of Australia, 1991point, the children’s depression rating scale (CDRS-R; P = 0.10), but this was not mentioned in the abstract. This and the small or absent advantages of fluoxetine on other end points (table) and in other studies, 3 shows that fluoxetine, like all other antidepressants, is of doubtful clinical importance for children.

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.

Early carotid artery stenting for symptomatic carotid artery stenosis
Acta Neurochirurgica, 2015The aim of present study was to assess safety and efficacy of early carotid artery stent (CAS) in patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis compared with delayed CAS.This retrospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and the requirement to obtain written informed consent was waived.
