Carotid endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid stenosis: asymptomatic carotid surgery trial.
Effective prevention is inarguably the best option for reducing the individual and societal burden of stroke. For each patient, clinicians balance the benefits of a given preventive therapy against its associated risks and costs. Where possible, these assessments should be based on the results of randomized clinical trials. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA), the most-commonly used surgical procedure...
متن کاملCerebral hemodynamics in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients with high-grade carotid stenosis undergoing carotid endarterectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Asymptomatic patients with carotid stenosis benefit less from carotid endarterectomy (CEA) than symptomatic patients because the risk of embolic events is lower, but it is not known whether the hemodynamic effect of CEA is different between the groups. We evaluated hemodynamics of symptomatic and asymptomatic patient groups before and after CEA. METHODS Forty-six indepe...
متن کاملCarotid endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid stenosis.
BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is of proven benefit in recently-symptomatic patients with severe carotid stenosis. Its role in asymptomatic stenosis is still debated. The Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial (ACST) more than doubled the number of patients randomised to CEA trials. This revised review incorporates the recently published ACST results. OBJECTIVES Our objective was to dete...
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...
متن کاملDifferential Expression of MicroRNAs in Endarterectomy Specimens Taken from Patients with Asymptomatic and Symptomatic Carotid Plaques
OBJECTIVE Stroke and transient ischemic attacks are considered as clinical manifestations of atherosclerotic disease due to on-going vascular inflammation and finally atherothrombosis of the carotid arteries. MicroRNAs (miRNA/miR) are known to be involved in vascular inflammation and plaque destabilization. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression profile of selected miRNAs in endart...
