Peripheral Artery Disease Extracranial Carotid Disease Revascularization
Extracranial carotid artery stenosis is a factor in 20% to 30% of all strokes.1,2 Revascularization strategies using surgical carotid endarterectomy (CEA) or carotid artery stenting (CAS) offer the possibility of stroke prevention by restoring flow and mitigating the risk for future plaqueassociated embolization. Numerous studies have assessed whether these procedures reduce the risk for stroke...
متن کاملPeripheral Artery Disease Surgical Technique and Peripheral Artery Disease
Invasive treatment for patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) has changed dramatically. Medicare claims data from 1996 to 2006 reveal an almost doubling of lower-extremity vascular procedures: The use of endovascular repair increased 3-fold, bypass surgery decreased 42%, and the amputation rate decreased by 29%.1 For patients admitted to hospital for PAD between 1996 and 2005, the likeli...
متن کاملStudy of carotid disease in patients with peripheral artery disease.
OBJECTIVE To study the stenosis of the carotid arteries in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease. METHODS we assessed 100 consecutive patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease in stages of intermittent claudication, rest pain or ulceration. Carotid stenosis was studied by echo-color-doppler, and considered significant when greater than or equal to 50%. We used univ...
متن کاملPeripheral Artery Disease Percutaneous Treatment of Peripheral Artery Disease
Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is a minimally invasive therapy for the treatment of patients with peripheral artery disease who suffer from intermittent claudication or critical limb ischemia. The main advantages of the endovascular approach are a low complication rate ranging between 0.5% and 4%, a high technical success rate approaching 90% even in long occlusions, and an acceptable cl...
