Successful Surgical Management of a Coincidence of Three-Vessel Coronary Artery Disease, Severe Carotid Atherosclerosis, and Carotid Paraganglioma: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
The patient was diagnosed with three significant pathologies, which were managed successfully in a single surgery. ABSTRACT Screening for carotid atherosclerosis is mandatory before coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). Incidental pathologies, such as carotid paraganglioma, may be discovered rarely, complicating management.

European Stroke Organisation guideline on endarterectomy and stenting for carotid artery stenosis

open access: yesEuropean Stroke Journal, 2021
Atherosclerotic stenosis of the internal carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. The aim of this guideline is to analyse the evidence pertaining to medical, surgical and endovascular treatment of patients with carotid stenosis.

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

The Impact of Surgery Resident Participation on the Outcome of Carotid Endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Introduction. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the in-hospital stroke rate plus deaths (SD) was adversely impacted by the participation of surgery residents during carotid endarterectomy. Methods.

Carotid Endarterectomy

open access: yesAnnals of Surgery, 1976
Carotid endarterectomies have been performed for over a decade now. To review the knowledge derived from this surgical experience, i studied 18 reports on the subject, giving attention to four specific phases of patient care: the diagnostic, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative periods.

Carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy for treatment of carotid artery stenosis.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
BACKGROUND Carotid artery stenting is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for the treatment of atherosclerotic carotid artery stenosis. This review updates a previous version first published in 1997 and subsequently updated in 2004, 2007, and 2012.

Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials.

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
BACKGROUND Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the most common cause of long-term disability. Severe narrowing (stenosis) of the carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. Surgical treatment (carotid endarterectomy) may reduce the risk of

What happens to the external carotid artery following carotid endarterectomy?

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2008
Aims The effect of carotid endarterectomy on the patency of the external carotid artery is unknown. We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the long-term changes in the external carotid artery following carotid endarterectomy.
