  • Long-Term Outcome After Carotid Endarterectomy in Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease

    2018, World Neurosurgery
    Citation Excerpt :

    Although roughly 2% of all patients undergoing CABG have a cerebral vascular accident, the presence of severe carotid artery disease increases this frequency by 3-fold.24 Moreover, 1 of 2 patients referred for carotid revascularization had severe epicardial coronary artery disease, ischemic electrocardiogram changes, or a history of MI.25,26 IHD is a major cause of death not only after ischemic stroke27-30 but during the perioperative and follow-up period after CEA.12-16

  • Reporting Standards for Carotid Artery Angioplasty and Stent Placement

    2009, Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology
    Citation Excerpt :

    Similar favorable results were reported by Al-Mubarak et al, who reported on 51 consecutive patients undergoing simultaneous or staged carotid artery stenting and percutaneous coronary intervention. Technical success was achieved in all carotid arteries, with a minor stroke rate of 4% and no major strokes, myocardial infarctions, or deaths (106). In the NASCET, the perioperative stroke and death rate was 5.8%, with 0.6% mortality rate mostly caused by myocardial infarction (23).

  • Operative management of carotid artery in-stent restenosis: First experiences and duplex follow-up

    2003, European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
    Citation Excerpt :

    In the last decade, however, the introduction of adjunctive stenting has mitigated many of these concerns. Although still an emerging technique using evolving equipment, both single-center reports2,4-6 and worldwide surveys7 of carotid stenting have demonstrated procedural results appoaching those of endarterectomy, typically in the high-risk patient with significant comorbidities excluded from the previous surgical trials.8,9 Complications of anaesthesia, infection, haemorrhage, myocardial infarction, and cranial nerve palsy are avoided with stenting, which has also shown the potential to shorten hospital stays and lower costs compared with endarterectomy.10
