Risk Score for Peri-Interventional Complications of Carotid Artery Stenting
Background and Purpose—Routinely available independent risk factors for the peri-interventional outcome of patients undergoing elective carotid artery stenting (CAS) are lacking. The rationale of the study was to create a risk score identifying high-risk patients. Methods—We prospectively enrolled 606 consecutive patients assigned to CAS at a secondary care hospital. Various biochemical, clinic...
متن کاملCarotid angioplasty and stenting.
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 (...
متن کاملCarotid Stenting and Endarterectomy
Background and Purpose—Investigational carotid stenting for extracranial carotid stenosis has demonstrated procedural results approaching those reported with endarterectomy, but with limited cost and long-term data. This study compared the in-hospital outcomes and costs of these 2 revascularization strategies at a single institution and the long-term effectiveness of carotid stenting. Methods—D...
متن کاملANGIOPLASTY 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 angioplasty and stenting in a patient with high grade stenosis of Internal Carotid Artery associated with both vertebral arteries and contralateral carotid occlusion
Severe internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis is a common cause of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in middle-aged patients. Contralateral carotid occlusion (CCO) in patients with severe ICA stenosis is associated with high risk of CVA. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is associated with more complications in patients with CCO than those without CCO. In this study, we present the case of a 61-year-ol...
