Resolving siphon stenosis following endarterectomy.
Tandem arteriosclerotic lesions of the carotid sinus and siphon increase the risks of carotid endarterectomy; when the siphon is severely stenotic, a microvascular bypass may be the preferable procedure. Two patients, each with severe siphon stenosis and significant sinus lesions, however, were subjected to carotid endarterectomy as their initial surgical procedure. The postoperative arteriogra...

Prognosis of Carotid Siphon Stenosis To the Editor: In their interesting paper, Wechsler et al confirmed that siphon stenosis carries a poor prognosis for life, as one-third of their patients were dead at the end of a 51-month follow-up. In a previous study involving 15 patients with siphon stenosis of > 30% (without proximal atherosclerosis of equal or greater severity), we also found a high m...

متن کاملThe prognosis of carotid siphon stenosis.
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical course and angiograms of 15 patients with carotid siphon stenosis of 50% or greater. Fourteen had less than 50% stenosis at the origin of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery, and one had a greater degree of stenosis but underwent endarterectomy after an initial angiogram. Angiograms were examined for evidence of hemodynamic abnormalities in addition ...
متن کاملEndarterectomy and Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis
Atherosclerotic carotid stenosis has been recognized for the past several decades as being responsible for a significant portion of ischemic stroke, particularly the major and disabling ones. This category of stroke distinguished itself as being one of the first ones to have an effective preventive treatment in carotid endarterectomy. It took over 4 decades before major randomized, controlled t...
