Functional MRI evaluation of the effect of carotid artery stenting: a case study demonstrating cognitive improvement

Acta Radiologica Open, 2021
Background The narrowing of the carotid arteries with plaque formation represents a major risk factor for ischemic stroke and cognitive impairments. Carotid angioplasty and stenting is a standard clinical treatment to reduce stroke risk.

Carotid Artery Stenting

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014
Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has achieved clinical equipoise with carotid endarterectomy (CEA), as evidenced by 2 large U.S. randomized clinical trials, multiple pivotal registry trials, and 2 multispecialty guideline documents endorsed by 14 professional societies.

Hybrid treatment of symptomatic carotid disease

EJVES Short Reports, 2019
Hybrid treatment is a well reported technique for tandem carotid artery disease. Herein, we present a previously undescribed technique to facilitate safe passage of a guidewire via the inflow limb of the Pruitt-Inahara shunt in the proximal common ...

Curve-centered plaques raise the risk of peri-operative neurological and cardiovascular complications during angioplasty and stenting for severe carotid stenosis

Frontiers in Neurology
IntroductionCarotid artery stenting is an alternative interventional treatment to carotid endarterectomy. However, preprocedural considerations and anatomical risk factor analyses for carotid artery stenting are currently insufficient.

Modern Management of Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Meta‐Analysis of CREST‐2, SPACE‐2, and ECST‐2

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recent randomized trials (CREST‐2, SPACE‐2, and ECST‐2) have compared carotid revascularization (carotid endarterectomy [CEA] or carotid artery stenting [CAS]) plus contemporary medical therapy (CMT) versus CMT alone in asymptomatic carotid stenosis.

Outcomes of carotid artery stenting at a high-volume Brazilian interventional neuroradiology center

Clinics, 2015
OBJECTIVES: Carotid artery stenting is an emerging revascularization alternative to carotid endarterectomy. However, guidelines have recommended carotid artery stenting only if the rate of periprocedural stroke or death is < 6% among symptomatic patients
