Management challenges of late presentation Dacron patch infection after carotid endarterectomy
An 83-year-old man presented 4 years after right carotid endarterectomy (CEA) with an infection of his prosthetic Dacron patch. Initial scans (CT angiogram and whole body labelled white cell scan) were clear with no infection or collection noted. Systemically, the patient presented well with no recorded fevers. With an occluded left internal carotid artery and severely stenosed vertebral arteri...
متن کاملStandard Carotid Endarterectomy with Dacron Patch Angioplasty, Risks and Outcomes
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the different risk factors and their impact on the final outcome of standard carotid endarterectomy with dacron patch angioplasty. Methods: From January 1998 to December 2002, 805 (488 males, 317 females) patients underwent standard carotid endarterectomy with dacron patch angioplasty at Texas Heart Institute. The mean age was 69.5 years (range 34-...
متن کاملBovine pericardium vs dacron for patch angioplasty after carotid endarterectomy: a prospective randomized study.
HYPOTHESIS Bovine pericardium (BP) demonstrates improved intraoperative hemostasis and equivalent perioperative morbidity compared with Dacron when used as patch material for angioplasty following carotid endarterectomy. OBJECTIVE To prospectively compare BP and Dacron patch angioplasty after carotid endarterectomy in a randomized fashion. METHODS Ninety-five consecutive primary carotid end...
متن کاملPatch Angioplasty in Carotid Endarterectomy
There is much controversy in the literature regarding the precise role of patch angioplasty in carotid endarterectomy. Our report summarizes the theoretical and experimental considerations, including the hemodynamic effects and biologic behavior of the graft, associated with this technique. We present a detailed review of the literature regarding the clinical efficacy of patch angioplasty in ca...
متن کاملCommentary Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome following carotid endarterectomy
Extracranial internal carotid artery stenosis accounts for 15–20% of ischaemic strokes and carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the most frequently performed surgical intervention in stroke prevention. The risk of stroke and death associated with the operation has been estimated at about 5.6% (95%CI 4.4–6.9). Neurological complications following CEA are usually ischaemic in nature, due to embolizati...
