Redo carotid endarterectomy versus primary carotid endarterectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Several authorities have recently advocated carotid stenting for recurrent carotid stenosis because of the perception that redo surgery has a higher complication rate than primary carotid endarterectomy (CEA). This study compares the early and late results of reoperations versus primary CEA. METHODS All reoperations for recurrent carotid stenosis performed during a rece...
متن کاملStenting Versus Carotid Endarterectomy for Carotid Disease
Background and Purpose—Carotid artery stenosis causes up to 10% of all ischemic strokes. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) was introduced as a treatment to prevent stroke in the early 1950s. Carotid stenting (CAS) was introduced as a treatment to prevent stroke in 1994. Methods—The Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial (CREST) is a randomized trial with blinded end point adj...
متن کاملStroke prevention: carotid stenting versus carotid endarterectomy
Revascularization of the extracranial carotid arteries is a commonly performed surgical procedure to prevent stroke. Open surgery (i.e., carotid endarterectomy [CEA]) is a well-established stroke prevention procedure but is being 'challenged' by a less invasive percutaneous procedure (i.e., carotid artery stent [CAS] placement). Clinical trials comparing CAS and CEA for average-surgical-risk pa...

متن کاملCarotid Revascularization: Carotid Endarterectomy
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a procedure that has reliably decreased the risk of cerebrovascular events and death in patients with severe carotid stenosis. In this chapter, important concepts in the preoperative assessment of patients undergoing CEA will be reviewed. An overview of the clinical trials highlighting current indications will be provided, followed by a discussion of the surgical...
