Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials.

Frequency of restenosis after carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
Introduction: Carotid artery restenosis is a significant long-term complication of carotid endarterectomy. Carotid artery restenosis is the result of neointimal hyperplasia in the early postoperative period or recurrent atherosclerotic lesions in the ...

Association between platelet lymphocyte ratio and neutrophil lymphocyte ratio and clinical outcomes following carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
Background Approximately 30% of stroke cases result from carotid disease. Although several risk factors for complications after carotid endarterectomy have been identified, the existence of a biomarker that can estimate postoperative risk in these ...

Why carotid endarterectomy is method of choice in treatment of carotid stenosis [PDF]
Procedures used in treatment of carotid stenosis are endarterectomy, PTA with stent implantation, resection with graft interposition and by-pass procedure. Segmental lesions are found more often and treated by the first two mentioned procedures.
