Perspectives in Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, 2005
Coding personnel should be aware of the new CPT guidelines for reporting carotid and vertebral stent placement. Payors' billing requirements for these procedures vary, and it is important to determine before billing whether the payor will accept the applicable CPT category I or III code or whether an unlisted code must be reported.

Cost-utility analysis of stenting versus endarterectomy in the International Carotid Stenting Study [PDF]
International Journal of Stroke, 2016 BACKGROUND: The International Carotid Stenting Study was a multicenter randomized trial in which patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis were randomly allocated to treatment by carotid stenting or endarterectomy.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2008
Carotid angioplasty and stenting is potentially an alternative to carotid endarterectomy in carotid stenosis, but it remains unclear whether it confers significant advantages over carotid endarterectomy. We reviewed evidence on carotid angioplasty and stenting in carotid stenosis.Carotid angioplasty and stenting is neither safer nor associated with ...

Carotid stenting and endarterectomy
International Journal of Cardiology, 2016Stroke, either ischemic or hemorrhagic, remains the second commonest cause of death worldwide in the last decade. Etiologies for ischemic stroke (IS) vary widely. Atherothrombotic occlusion is an essential cause to which carotid artery stenosis (CAS) is a major contributor.

Controversies in Carotid Stenting
Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2003Endovascular therapies are now commonly used in many vascular sites. However, the role for carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) remains an unproven therapy with some potential benefits. Initial results of CAS were worse than the surgical standard of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and did not meet American Heart Association guidelines.

Efficacy for carotid artery stenting (CAS) has not been confirmed by randomized clinical trial methodology in conventional risk patients. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is considered the preferred method for carotid revascularization in the management of patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic extracranial carotid occlusive disease ...

Abstract Several large-scale studies have corroborated the indications for carotid artery revascularization in patients who present with carotid artery stenosis. The two treatment options are carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stent, both of which show equipoise in outcomes, and although the latter is associated with increased ...

Carotid stent extrusion following carotid blowout
Auris Nasus Larynx, 2015We describe an unusual foreign body, a carotid stent extruded into the upper airway, and discuss the predisposing factors.This is a single patient case report with review of the literature.Our patient is a 59 year old female treated for T3N2aM0 (stage IVa) left tonsil squamous cell carcinoma who experienced a carotid blowout treated by carotid stent ...

Carotid Artery Stenting After Carotid Endarterectomy
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2011Atherosclerotic carotid artery disease remains an important cause of cerebrovascular ischemic disease. We present a patient with residual stenosis of the distal internal carotid artery following carotid endarterectomy that was treated with stenting. The case highlights the potential complimentary benefits of carotid endarterectomy and carotid stenting.
