Stroke and Mortality Rate in Carotid Endarterectomy:
MARY A retrospective study of 228 consecutive carotid endctomies was conducted to determine the operative stroke and lity rate in two 600-bed community hospitals. The combined -mortality rate for the series was 21.1% (48 of 228). Eleven :erectomies were performed for asymptomatic bruits and the ned stroke-mortality rate was 18.2% (2 of 11). Fifty-seven endctomies were performed for transient is...
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...

I was dismayed, however, by the manner in which he displayed our data in the table using his reference...
متن کاملImproved results of carotid endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic coronary disease: an analysis of 1,546 consecutive carotid operations.
The significant risk of fatal myocardial infarction after carotid endarterectomy in patients with coronary disease long has been recognized. In 1,546 consecutive carotid endarterectomies performed in 1,238 patients over the last 10 years, angina pectoris was present in 17% (212/1,238) of patients; a further 32% (396/1,238) of patients were asymptomatic, but had a history of myocardial infarctio...
متن کاملStroke after carotid stenting and endarterectomy in the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial (CREST).
BACKGROUND Stroke occurs more commonly after carotid artery stenting than after carotid endarterectomy. Details regarding stroke type, severity, and characteristics have not been reported previously. We describe the strokes that have occurred in the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial (CREST). METHODS AND RESULTS CREST is a randomized, open-allocation, controlled tr...
