Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide. One of the main causes of stroke is carotid artery stenosis. Stenosis with atherosclerosis in the carotid artery can cause stroke by hemodynamic ischemia or artery to artery embolism. A most common surgical intervention for carotid artery stenosis is carotid endarterectomy (CEA).

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is an underdiagnosed condition. Patients typically present with the symptoms of right heart failure. Diagnosis is usually done by radionuclide ventilation/perfusion (VQ) scan, high-quality multidetector computed tomography (CT) or pulmonary angiography at expert centers. Pulmonary endarterectomy remains the

Neurosurgery, 1980
The immediate surgical results of 163 consecutive carotid endarterectomies performed in a neurosurgical training center are presented. The mortality rate was 0.6% and the permanent neurological morbidity rate was 2.5%. Several factors in the surgical technique including the use of magnified vision, full heparinization, the liberal use of intimal ...

Carotid endarterectomy is an established surgical procedure to prevent stroke. The indications, preoperative evaluation, surgical timing, technical details, complications, and special circumstances for the use of this operation are reviewed. Future developments in the surgical reconstruction of the extracranial carotid artery are also discussed.

European Journal of Anaesthesiology, 2006
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is a condition that is recognised in an increased percentage of patients. Pulmonary endarterectomy is recognised as being the only curative option for a subgroup of those patients, but anaesthesiologists and intensivists face many challenges in how they manage these patients perioperatively.

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2008
Pulmonary endarterectomy is the treatment of choice for many patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Although potentially curative, some patients receive no benefit and have poor outcomes. This review will look at the new research in the pathophysiology of the disease and developments in perioperative care, which may help to ...

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 1985
AbstractLaser radiation can be applied directly at a diseased artery to dissect the plaque away from the media and perform an open endarterectomy. The appropriate cleavage plane within the media can be achieved with the laser beam for precise reconstruction of the artery.
