Indication for Carotid Endarterectomy

Neurologia medico-chirurgica, 1998
From recent randomized studies, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is highly beneficial to the patients with a symptomatic high-grade carotid artery stenosis (70-99%), but the surgical indication for an asymptomatic carotid artery disease remains unsolved. Sixty-three atheromatous plaques (symptomatic 51, asymptomatic 12) were obtained from 57 patients who ...

Carotid Endarterectomy in Nonagenarians [PDF]

Archives of Surgery, 2005
The North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial and the European Carotid Surgery Trial demonstrated that a greater benefit from carotid endarterectomy (CEA) was seen in elderly compared with younger patients. However, no patients older than 89 years were included in either study. We hypothesized that CEA is safe and effective in patients 89

Association of Cerebral Oxygenation During Prehospital Anaesthesia and Functional Outcome: A Prospective, Observational Multi‐Centre Cohort Study of 1014 Patients

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Many patients undergoing prehospital anaesthesia may be at risk of inadequate cerebral oxygenation due to underlying conditions or adverse events like hypotension or hypoxia. This study examined whether a decrease in regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) measured with near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during prehospital ...

Hydrocortisone supresses inflammatory activity of metalloproteinase - 8 in carotid plaque

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2015
Objective:Matrix metalloproteinases are inflammatory biomarkers involved in carotid plaque instability. Our objective was to analyze the inflammatory activity of plasma and carotid plaque MMP-8 and MMP-9 after intravenous administration of hydrocortisone.

Genetic susceptibility loci for cardiovascular disease and their impact on atherosclerotic plaques [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in part caused by lipid uptake in the vascular wall, but the exact underlying mechanisms leading to acute myocardial infarction and stroke remain poorly understood. Large consortia identified

A Hypoxia‐Responsive Single‐Atom Sonozyme for Targeted Sonocatalytic Therapy in Alleviating Atherosclerotic Plaque

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
A tetranitrogen‐coordinated single‐atom manganese catalyst (SMC) is fabricated with outstanding sonosensitization efficiency and multi‐enzyme‐like catalytic properties. To enable better targeting of M1 macrophages, hyaluronic acid (HA) is applied to modify the surface of SMC, yielding SMC‐HA nanozymes.

Sonographic Anatomy and Imaging of the Extracranial Component of the Hypoglossal Nerve (CNXII)

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 4, Page 417-429, December 2025.
The hypoglossal nerve (HN) provides motor innervation to tongue muscles responsible for tongue movement, speech, mastication, swallowing, respiratory functions and management of oral secretions. The intracranial component of the HN can be demonstrated on magnetic resonance imaging and the extracranial component can be demonstrated with sonographic ...

Recurrent pseudoaneurysm after carotid endarterectomy

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Pseudoaneurysms and patch infections are known complications of carotid endarterectomy with patch angioplasty. Although they are rare occurrences, they carry high morbidity and almost uniformly require surgical intervention.
