Carotid endarterectomy versus carotid stenting for asymptomatic carotid stenosis: Evaluating the overlapping meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials [PDF]
Background: Asymptomatic carotid stenosis is associated with increased risk of ischemic stroke. The management of asymptomatic carotid stenosis ranges from open surgical approaches, minimally invasive endovascular interventions, and medical therapeutics.

Ophthalmic artery flow direction change predicts recurrence of ischemic stroke after carotid stenting: a longitudinal observational study [PDF]
Background and purpose The implantation of carotid artery stents prevents recurrent ischemic stroke in patients with carotid stenosis. This study aimed to investigate associations between change of ophthalmic artery flow (COAF) post carotid stenting and ...

Carotid artery stenting: an update [PDF]
In patients with carotid disease, the purpose of carotid artery revascularization is stroke prevention. For >50 years, carotid endarterectomy has been considered the standard treatment for severe asymptomatic and symptomatic carotid stenoses.

Carotid stenting technique and review of literature – What every resident should know [PDF]
Carotid artery stenosis is a prevalent and substantial cause of ischemic stroke; however, in patients who have significant symptomatic stenosis, carotid revascularization can lower their chances of having an ischemic stroke.

Hemodynamic evaluation of endarterectomy and stenting treatments for carotid web
Background and purposeA carotid web is a thin, shelf-like luminal protrusion in the internal carotid artery that might cause carotid stenosis and stroke by inducing disturbed flow patterns, thrombosis, and abnormal biomechanical stimulus to the ...
