Carotid Stenting and Endarterectomy
Background and Purpose—Investigational carotid stenting for extracranial carotid stenosis has demonstrated procedural results approaching those reported with endarterectomy, but with limited cost and long-term data. This study compared the in-hospital outcomes and costs of these 2 revascularization strategies at a single institution and the long-term effectiveness of carotid stenting. Methods—D...
متن کاملStenting Versus Carotid Endarterectomy for Carotid Disease
Background and Purpose—Carotid artery stenosis causes up to 10% of all ischemic strokes. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) was introduced as a treatment to prevent stroke in the early 1950s. Carotid stenting (CAS) was introduced as a treatment to prevent stroke in 1994. Methods—The Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial (CREST) is a randomized trial with blinded end point adj...
متن کاملStroke prevention: carotid stenting versus carotid endarterectomy
Revascularization of the extracranial carotid arteries is a commonly performed surgical procedure to prevent stroke. Open surgery (i.e., carotid endarterectomy [CEA]) is a well-established stroke prevention procedure but is being 'challenged' by a less invasive percutaneous procedure (i.e., carotid artery stent [CAS] placement). Clinical trials comparing CAS and CEA for average-surgical-risk pa...

متن کاملCarotid artery stenting vs. endarterectomy.
Randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is superior to medical management for stroke prevention in patients with symptomatic and, to a lesser degree, asymptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis. However, large-scale registries have shown that the adverse event rates following CEA are commonly higher than observed in the trials. In the last decade, caroti...
