A rare case of neurological dysfunction due to severe hyponatremia after carotid artery endarterectomy: A review of the clinical approach to hyponatremia

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
Development of severe hyponatremia after carotid endarterectomy procedure is rare. Several pathophysiological mechanisms related to the carotid endarterectomy procedure may infer an increased risk of developing this complication in specific populations.

An Alternative Surgical Procedure for a Patient with Critically Restenosed and Kinked Carotid Artery: Graft Interposition

Case Reports in Surgery, 2011
According to the literature data, the prevalence of restenosis after carotid endarterectomy ranges between 6 and 36%. The etiological factor is intimal hyperplasia for early period, whereas it is atherosclerosis for late period.

Carotid endarterectomy with patch angioplasty versus primary closure in patients with symptomatic and significant stenosis: a systematic review with meta-analyses and trial sequential analysis of randomized clinical trials

Systematic Reviews, 2021
Background Patch angioplasty in conventional carotid endarterectomy is suggested to reduce the risk of restenosis and recurrent ipsilateral stroke compared with primary closure.

Redo Carotid Endarterectomy Versus Primary Carotid Endarterectomy [PDF]

Stroke, 2001
90 Background/Purpose: Several authorities have recently advocated carotid stenting for recurrent carotid stenosis because of the perception that redo surgery carries a higher complication rate than primary carotid endarterectomy (CEA).

Carotid Endarterectomy

Annals 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.

Distal Cervical Carotid Artery Dissection after Carotid Endarterectomy: A Complication of Indwelling Shunt

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2010
The technical factors and surgical methods employed in carotid endarterectomy are controversial. In particular, whether or not to use an indwelling arterial shunt during carotid endarterectomy remains a source of conflict.

Carotid endarterectomy [PDF]

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2007
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is performed to prevent embolic stroke in patients with atheromatous disease at the carotid bifurcation. There is now substantial evidence to support early operation in symptomatic patients, ideally within 2 weeks of the last neurological symptoms.
