Carotid Artery Stent Continued Expansion Days After Deployment, Without Post Stent Deployment Angioplasty. [PDF]
This is a carotid artery stent (CAS) case report, which avoids post-stent deployment angioplasty (Post-SDA), with duplex confirmed continued stent expansion at 1, 3 and 30-day post deployment.

Background: Carotid webs are luminal, shelf-like protrusions at the carotid bulb. Considered to be a variant of fibromuscular dysplasia, carotid webs have been observed principally in African American females. The association between carotid webs and recurrent ischemic strokes continues to be established as patients without traditional stroke risk ...

Atherosclerotic narrowing (stenosis) of the internal carotid artery accounts for about 10-15% of ischaemic strokes. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces the risk of stroke in patients with symptomatic stenosis and - to a lesser degree - with asymptomatic carotid stenosis. Endovascular treatment including balloon angioplasty and carotid artery stenting (

Peri-procedural brain lesions prevention in CAS (3PCAS). Randomized trial comparing CGuard™ stent vs. wallstent [PDF]
Background: Aim of this study was to evaluate peri-procedural incidence of new diffusion-weighted-magneticresonance- imaging (DWMRI) brain lesions in CAS patients treated by carotid mesh stent (CGuard™) or closed-cell stent (Wallstent™).

Personalising treatment in patients with carotid disease [PDF]
Approximately 10-15% of all ischaemic strokes are caused by atherosclerotic stenosis of the carotid artery. Conventionally, carotid stenosis was treated by surgical removal of the atherosclerotic plaque (carotid endarterectomy). Since the introduction of

Carotid angioplasty and stenting [PDF]
The endovascular management of carotid artery disease is a rapidly developing area currently under evaluation in Europe and the US. The technique is a simple progression of those skills used in peripheral vessels and involves the percutaneous placement of a metallic stent.

Carotid endarterectomy for treatment of in-stent restenosis after carotid angioplasty and stenting [PDF]
Carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) has emerged as an alternative for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in the prevention of stroke. The benefit of the procedure, however, is hampered by a suggested higher incidence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) for CAS relative to CEA during follow-up. ISR management remains a challenge for clinicians.

Neurotrophins in carotid atherosclerosis and stenting
Carotid stenting is used with an expanding indications. The neurotrophins are a family of proteins that induce the survival, development, and function of neurons. Carotid stenting alters cerebral blood flow and can affect neurotrophins' levels.We included 78 people: 39 with significant carotid stenoses (CS) referred for carotid stenting (mean age 67.79
