• Stroke is the third most common cause of death following cardiovascular disease and cancer and is the most common cause of neurological disability. 70-85% of stroke is ischemic and 20-30% is due to atherosclerosis of CCA. • Pathogenesis: endothelial injury or dysfunction-platelet aggregation and inward migration of mononuclear cells and lymphocytes-release of growth factors-migration and prol...
متن کاملExtracranial-intracranial arterial bypass surgery for occlusive carotid artery disease.
BACKGROUND The EC/IC Bypass Study Group found no benefit of extracranial to intracranial (EC/IC) bypass surgery over medical therapy in patients with symptomatic carotid artery occlusion (sCAO). However, the study was criticised for many reasons and the real effect of this treatment is still not known conclusively. OBJECTIVES To determine whether bypass surgery plus medical care is superior t...

متن کاملCarotid disease in diabetic patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
OBJECTIVE To compare the severity of carotid artery disease in diabetic and non-diabetic patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS From January to June 2008, 379 patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass surgery were preoperatively evaluated for the presence of carotid stenoses by duplex scanning.

متن کاملHemodynamics of carotid artery atherosclerotic occlusive disease.
Hemodynamic mechanisms for the initiation and progression of carotid bifurcation atherosclerotic occlusive disease have been extensively researched during the past few decades. Attention has focused on the carotid bulb, or sinus, where most atherosclerotic plaques are found. Herein, the authors review the seminal works that have led to an understanding of not only complex local hemodynamics but...
