Prosthetic bypass for restenosis after endarterectomy or stenting of the carotid artery [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of prosthetic carotid bypass (PCB) with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in treatment of restenosis after CEA or carotid artery ...

Protected carotid-artery stenting versus endarterectomy in high-risk patients.
BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy is more effective than medical management in the prevention of stroke in patients with severe symptomatic or asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid-artery stenosis. Stenting with the use of an emboli-protection device is a

Role of plaque inflammation in symptomatic carotid stenosis
ObjectivePrior studies have shown that plaque inflammation on FDG-PET and the symptomatic carotid atheroma inflammation lumen-stenosis (SCAIL) score were associated with recurrent ischemic events, but the findings have thus far not been widely validated.

Protocol for electrophysiological monitoring of carotid endarterectomies. [PDF]
Near zero stroke rates can be achieved in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) surgery with selective shunting and electrophysiological neuromonitoring. though false negative rates as high as 40% have been reported.
