In-Stent Restenosis after Carotid Stenting

Carotid artery stenosis is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. Currently, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) the surgical treatment of choice stenosis. stenting (CAS) increases CAS one options available, particularly high-risk CEA patients. Although has advantages being less invasive, causing patient discomfort, and requiring shorter hospital stay, some patients may develop in-stent restenosis (ISR). ISR closely related to clinical events such as transient attacks stroke recurrence. The author examines mechanism, influencing factors, research progress following CAS, well its prevention treatment, in order provide insights clinicians.
