Towards safer carotid artery stenting: a scoring system for anatomic suitability.
BACKGROUNDS AND PURPOSE To develop a scoring system to facilitate case selection for carotid artery stenting based on anatomic features. METHODS Twelve experts comprising a multinational and multispecialty panel were convened. Delphi consensus methodology was applied over 4 "rounds" involving emailed questionnaires, private decision-making, structured interaction and explicit aggregation. In ...

متن کاملCarotid artery stenting.
Efficacy for carotid artery stenting (CAS) has not been confirmed by randomized clinical trial methodology in conventional risk patients. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is considered the preferred method for carotid revascularization in the management of patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic extracranial carotid occlusive disease, comparisons between CAS and CEA are now underway. In...
متن کاملCarotid Artery Stenting
Carotid artery stenosis is relatively common and is a significant cause of ischemic stroke, but carotid revascularization can reduce the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with significant symptomatic stenosis. Carotid endarterectomy has been and remains the gold standard treatment to reduce the risk of carotid artery stenosis. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) (or carotid artery stent implantatio...
متن کاملCarotid artery stenting.
Atherosclerotic narrowing (stenosis) of the internal carotid artery accounts for about 10-15% of ischaemic strokes. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces the risk of stroke in patients with symptomatic stenosis and - to a lesser degree - with asymptomatic carotid stenosis. Endovascular treatment including balloon angioplasty and carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as an alternative to CEA ...
