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 ...

Carotid stenosis, stroke, and carotid artery revascularization
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2021Atherosclerotic disease of the carotid artery places patients at risk of ischemic stroke and consequently is a target of medical, endovascular and open surgical management. Various imaging modalities are used to characterize anatomy/severity of carotid disease and justify intervention, each having advantages and disadvantages. Carotid revascularization

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.

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1997The effect of clinical trials on clinical practice has been especially notable in the field of cerebrovascular surgery, and carotid endarterectomy in particular. Extensive data have been published from retrospective studies in cerebrovascular disease; the current focus on prospective randomized trials does not discount the validity of these prior ...

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis
1999Severe narrowing (or stenosis) of the carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. Surgical removal of the atheromatous material from the inside of the carotid artery (endarterectomy) may reduce the risk of stroke, but carries a risk of operative complications.This review seeks to summarize the evidence from randomized trials on the balance of risks

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

Asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007Severe asymptomatic carotid stenosis is associated with a stroke risk of approximately 2% per annum. Aggressive management of risk factors is recommended, including cessation of smoking, and treatment of hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia. Patients should be treated with antiplatelet agents.

Stroke, 1995
Background and Purpose Current methods of measuring carotid stenosis such as those used in the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET) and European Carotid Surgery Trial (ECST) have limitations caused by difficulties in measuring the normal width of the distal internal carotid artery (ICA) or the ...

Archives of Neurology, 1985
Management of the asymptomatic stenosis of the carotid bifurcation remains an unsettled question in the care of patients with generalized atherosclerosis. The natural history of the untreated condition is not known. Available data on the subject are mostly retrospective, ill-defined, and recommendations range from careful observation to aggressive ...

Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2012
Carotid stenosis is frequent in the general population, especially in elderly people and is associated with a high risk of stroke and vascular events. In patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis the overall annual risk of ipsilateral stroke has dramatically decreased over the past decades, due to improvement in medical management.
