Cerebral Protection for Carotid Artery Stenting: Safety, Efficacy and Limitations
Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been proven more effective than medical management in the prevention of stroke in patients with symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis, it has its disadvantages, including a neck incision and the requirement for general anesthesia in some patients. Additionally, surgical intervention also has limitations for those patients with severe bilat...
متن کاملCerebral protection devices for use during carotid artery stenting.
(1) Cerebral protection devices offer a new approach to reducing the risk of stroke and death in patients undergoing carotid angioplasty with stenting (CAS). (2) Nine studies have examined the efficacy of cerebral protection devices, by comparing the incidence of procedure related stroke and death to that of CAS without protection, and to surgical endarterectomy. Few of the studies were of high...
متن کاملCarotid Artery Stenting With and Without Cerebral Protection
carotid artery counterpart. Rocha-Singh insightfully attributed this to the nonspecific symptoms associated with posterior cerebral ischemia, difficulties imaging proximal vertebral artery stenosis with ultrasound, and the absence of a standard surgical therapy for vertebral artery disease.2 The relationship between vertebral artery insufficiency and posterior circulation ischemia is now becomi...
متن کاملNew MRI brain lesions as surrogate outcome for carotid stenting with and without cerebral protection.
New MRI Brain Lesions as Surrogate Outcome for Carotid Stenting With and Without Cerebral Protection To the Editor: We read with great interest the article by Kastrup et al.1 The authors showed that the proportion of patients with any new ipsilateral diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) lesion (49% versus 67%; P 0.05) as well as the number of new ipsilateral DWI lesions were significantly lower aft...
متن کاملCerebral protection with filter devices during carotid artery stenting.
BACKGROUND Distal embolization of debris during percutaneous carotid artery stenting may result in neurological deficit. Filter devices for cerebral protection potentially reduce the risk of embolization. METHODS AND RESULTS Elective carotid stent implantation using 3 different types of distal filter protection devices was attempted in 88 consecutive lesions (84 patients) in the internal caro...
