Carotid stenting for irradiation-associated carotid stenosis 3 years after previous carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
Extracranial carotid stenosis is a known complication of external irradiation to the head and neck region. We report on a patient with previous carotid endarterectomy for irradiation-associated carotid stenosis. This patient developed symptomatic carotid

Atherosclerotic carotid plaque composition: a 3T and 7T MRI-histology correlation study [PDF]
Background and Purpose Carotid artery atherosclerotic plaque composition may influence plaque stability and risk of thromboembolic events, and non-invasive plaque imaging may therefore permit risk stratification for clinical management.

This graphical abstract presents a comprehensive analysis of probe stability and oscillation during very high‐power short‐duration (vHPSD) pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation. The findings indicate that oscillation velocity serves as a more reliable predictor of impedance drop and temperature changes than contact force alone ...

Clinical follow-up rather than duplex surveillance after carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
Purpose: The value of duplex surveillance and the significance of contralateral carotid disease after endarterectomy have been assessed.Methods: Three hundred five patients were observed prospectively after carotid endarterectomy for a median time of 36 ...

Anaesthetic Monitoring of Patients during Carotid Endarterectomy
Atherosclerotic lesions of the extracranial arteries, namely the proximal portion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) are the leading cause of cerebral ischemia.

Objective: We evaluated the effect of surgeon experience on complication and mortality rates of carotid endarterectomy operation. Methods: Fifty-nine consecutive patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy between January 2013 and February 2016 were ...

E gaz Moniz, 1 the pioneer of angiography, in the 1920s identified carotid artery lesions in patients who had experienced a stroke. In the early 1940s, Hultquist 2 published early pathological observations. It remained for C. Miller Fisher's 3 meticulous observations in the 1950s to focus attention on the importance of the extracranial portion of ...

B Cell Subsets and Atherosclerosis: Updates and Emerging Concepts
ABSTRACT Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is increasingly recognized not just as a lipid‐driven disease, but as a complex interplay between vascular cells and the immune system. Accumulating evidence highlights a central, yet heterogeneous role for B cells in atherogenesis, with distinct subsets displaying opposing roles.
