ABSTRACT Background Cervical internal carotid artery stenosis (ICS) is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke, yet morphological severity alone may not fully reflect hemodynamic alterations. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), derived from multi‐velocity‐encoding (multi‐VENC) four‐dimensional (4D) flow MRI, may provide a robust marker for ICS ...

Carotid endarterectomy: The procedure of choice for carotid stenosis
Ischemic stroke is the commonest cause of neurological morbidity and mortality. Carotid endarterectomy has been shown to be beneficial in preventing ischemic strokes in patients with significant stenosis of the carotid artery, both in symptomatic and ...

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...

External carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
Forty-nine external carotid revascularization procedures were performed in 36 patients. Indications included transient ischemic attacks, amaurosis fugax, and the procedure as a prelude to extracranial-to-intracranial bypass. Twenty patients had a preoperative neurologic defect.

Protected carotid-artery stenting versus endarterectomy in high-risk patients.
BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy is more effective than medical management in the prevention of stroke in patients with severe symptomatic or asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid-artery stenosis. Stenting with the use of an emboli-protection device is a

Serious outcomes among emergency department patients with presyncope: A systematic review
Abstract Background Syncope is transient loss of consciousness, and in presyncope, patients experience same prodromal symptoms without losing consciousness. While studies have extensively reported the risk of serious outcome among emergency department (ED) syncope, the outcome for patients with presyncope and their management are not well studied.

Long-Term Results of Stenting versus Endarterectomy for Carotid-Artery Stenosis.
BACKGROUND In the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial, we found no significant difference between the stenting group and the endarterectomy group with respect to the primary composite end point of stroke, myocardial infarction,

Changing Trends in Carotid Revascularization in Australia: A Nationwide Study Over 30 Years
ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is one of the causes of acute ischaemic stroke. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are the main procedural treatment options. This study investigates the changing trends in carotid revascularisation in Australia over the last 30 years.
