Recurrent carotid stenosis after carotid endarterectomy
British Journal of Surgery, 1997This review examines the history, incidence, aetiology and pathology of recurrent carotid stenosis, and assesses the methods and results of managing patients with this condition.Over 200 references were retrieved from Medline from 1966 to 1996. Data were collected which reported the incidence, timing, method of diagnosis, follow-up, percentage of ...

Since 2004, several large randomized trials have provided important data about the comparison of carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting of more than 2,000 patients with predominantly symptomatic carotid artery stenosis. None of these trials demonstrated clearly an equivalent periprocedural risk of both techniques.

Stenosis of the internal carotid artery in the neck is an important and potentially treatable cause of ischaemic stroke (cerebral infarct), transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and retinal infarction. We discuss here the diagnosis and assessment of patients with carotid stenosis and consider ways of preventing the damage the condition can cause.

Carotid endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid stenosis
1999Whilst carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is of proven benefit in recently symptomatic patients with severe carotid stenosis, the role of carotid endarterectomy in preventing stroke in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis remains uncertain.The objective of this review therefore was to determine the effects of CEA for patients with asymptomatic carotid

Symptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis
Seminars in Neurology, 2014The management of patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis remains controversial. Randomized controlled studies established the value of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) over optimal medical therapy for patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis.

Evaluation of Carotid Stenosis by Phonoangiography
New England Journal of Medicine, 1975Quantitative spectral (frequency) analyses were performed on 60 carotid bruits in 48 patients with suspected carotid stenosis. The technic was totally noninvasive. Bruits were recorded at the skin surface, analyzed by a minicomputer, and the degree of arterial stenosis estimated using a recently derived theory of sound production by turbulent blood ...

Carotid Endarterectomy for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis
New England Journal of Medicine, 1993Ischemic stroke remains one of the most common devastating illnesses in developed countries, ranking third as the cause of death and extracting a huge socioeconomic toll because of the permanence o...

Carotid Stenosis with Thrombus
2019A 44-year-old male, with history of tobacco chewing and hypercholesterolemia presented with sudden onset of inability to speak. MRI revealed multiple small acute infarcts in the left temporoparietal area (Fig. 95.1a). His speech improved partially in the next few days. CT angiogram revealed severe stenosis of left internal carotid artery (Fig.

Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the most common cause of disability. Most strokes are ischemic and can be prevented by carotid revascularization. At the present time, indications for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) include asymptomatic stenosis of more than 80% or symptomatic stenosis of more than 50%.
