ANGIOPLASTY AND STENTING OF CAROTID ARTERY STENOSIS WITH EMBOLIC PROTECTION DEVICES
Background: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has recently been recommended as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) by some clinicians. Objective: This study was designed to evaluate the success rate and in-hospital and 30-day adverse events in our first experiences in Iran for CAS with protection devices, to document our results and guide further use of CAS. Methods: From December 2...
متن کاملCarotid stenting without use of balloon angioplasty and distal protection devices: preliminary experience in 100 cases.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A major concern during carotid artery stent placement is the potential for cerebral embolism. Diminishing the number of device manipulations across the lesion might reduce procedural stroke risk. For this purpose, we report our initial experience with carotid stent placement without the use of either balloon angioplasty or distal protection devices. MATERIALS AND METHOD...

carotid artery counterpart. Rocha-Singh insightfully attributed this to the nonspecific symptoms associated with posterior cerebral ischemia, difficulties imaging proximal vertebral artery stenosis with ultrasound, and the absence of a standard surgical therapy for vertebral artery disease.2 The relationship between vertebral artery insufficiency and posterior circulation ischemia is now becomi...
متن کاملFavorable early outcome of carotid artery stenting without protection devices.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Protection devices are increasingly used in carotid artery stenting. However, no randomized trial has been conducted to evaluate the efficacy of such devices, and arguments have also been formulated against their routine use. We set out to investigate the complication rates associated with carotid artery stenting performed without protection devices. Applicability of cove...

Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Qureshi,1 about carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) after the EVA3S trial.2 The author considers that the results of EVA3S are somewhat contradictory to the existing data derived from other studies. To reach this conclusion, Dr Qureshi put together studies that are hardly comparable because of their design (...
