Treatment of Carotid Stenosis

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.

Carotid artery stenosis

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2003
Qureshi and colleagues report the results of a prospective longitudinal pilot registry to test the short-term (30-day) and intermediate-term (1-year) safety and efficacy of a novel coiled sheet stent used for extracranial carotid artery (CA) angioplasty and stent placement.

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis

1999
Severe 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 symptomatic carotid stenosis

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1997
The 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 ...

Extracranial Carotid Stenosis

2017
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the method of choice for treatment of asymptomatic and symptomatic carotid stenoses. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) may be considered as an alternative to CEA in high-volume centres with documented death or stroke rate

Recurrent carotid stenosis after carotid endarterectomy

British Journal of Surgery, 1997
This 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 ...

Karotisstenose

Der Chirurg, 2007
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.

Managing carotid stenosis

Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 1998
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.
