Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is used as a less invasive substitute for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and is the treatment of choice for patients with severe carotid artery stenosis in whom CEA might accompany a high risk of complications. Although evidence showing that CAS is more effective than CEA is scarce, CAS has been widely used in Japan in the ...

Carotid Artery Stenting Update
Future Cardiology, 2013Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the most common cause of long-term disability in the USA. Approximately 25% of strokes are due to carotid artery disease. The mechanisms of stroke include thrombotic occlusion, thrombus embolism, atheroembolism and dissection or subintimal hematoma.

Carotid Artery Stenting: Update
International Journal of Cardiovascular Interventions, 2005"Extracranial carotid artery stenosis is responsible for approximately 20-30% of ischemic strokes. Traditionally, carotid artery stenosis has been treated with carotid endarterectomy. However, the low periprocedural complication rate and the mid term durability of carotid artery stenting has made it a competitive alternative treatment strategy.

Carotid Artery Stenting After Carotid Endarterectomy
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2011Atherosclerotic carotid artery disease remains an important cause of cerebrovascular ischemic disease. We present a patient with residual stenosis of the distal internal carotid artery following carotid endarterectomy that was treated with stenting. The case highlights the potential complimentary benefits of carotid endarterectomy and carotid stenting.

Carotid artery stenting versus carotid endarterectomy
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2016AbstractStroke remains a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Carotid artery stenosis is a major cause of stroke. Advances in medical therapy, surgical technique and endovascular maturation has resulted in options for the treatment of carotid stenosis.

Efficacy for carotid artery stenting (CAS) has not been confirmed by randomized clinical trial methodology in conventional risk patients. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is considered the preferred method for carotid revascularization in the management of patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic extracranial carotid occlusive disease ...
