| A minimally invasive alternative to carotid endarterectomy is angioplasty and stenting of a carotid stenosis. |
|
| Carotid angioplasty aids the management of fibromuscular dysplasia, radiation injury, and symptomatic restenosis after carotid endarterectomy. |
|
| It also contains indicators for how often certain surgical procedures, such as carotid endarterectomy and pediatric heart surgery, are performed. |
|
| Past surgical history included right carotid endarterectomy, coronary stent placement, and angioplasty of his left lower extremity. |
|
| Through the removal of atherosclerotic plaques, carotid endarterectomy restores cerebral blood flow and reduces the risk of cerebral ischemia. |
|
| The overall benefit of carotid endarterectomy strongly depends on surgical risk. |
|
| Often patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy also have comorbid conditions, such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, or diabetes. |
|
| As he buttoned up his shirt, I noticed the scar on his neck from previous carotid endarterectomy surgery. |
|
| Firm evidence from two large trials has clarified the role of carotid endarterectomy in patients with ipsilateral severe carotid stenosis. |
|
| A successful carotid endarterectomy is not a major procedure, and most patients can be discharged home the day after surgery. |
|
| He recently endured a stroke that led to an early-morning endarterectomy to clear a carotid artery. |
|
| These include: previous radiotherapy for neck malignancy, and recurrent stenosis after previous endarterectomy. |
|
| Carotid endarterectomy is indicated if arteries are 70 percent or more stenosed and should be performed soon after the TIA event in selected patients. |
|
| Carotid endarterectomy can improve the circulation to the brain and decrease the risk of stroke for some individuals. |
|
| With a low surgical risk, carotid endarterectomy provides modest benefit in symptomatic patients with carotid artery stenosis of 50 to 69 percent. |
|
| This project aims to identify and quantify some of the physiological effects of the carotid endarterectomy procedure. |
|
| Carotid endarterectomy is the surgical treatment of choice at this time. |
|
| As a haemostatic agent at bleeding points of suture following carotid endarterectomy with patch angioplasty. |
|
| For example, carotid endarterectomy is the surgical removal of fatty deposits clogging the carotid artery in the neck that could lead to a stroke. |
|
| They could not support a recommendation for routine preoperative endarterectomy in patients with asymptomatic carotid bruits. |
|
|
|
| Haemostasis and reinforcement of anastomoses in general, particularly in the presence of fragile vascular walls or vascular walls subjected to endarterectomy. |
|
| In 1953 he performed the first successful carotid endarterectomy for stroke, in 1964 the first successful coronary artery bypass, and in 1966 the first successful implantation of a ventricular assist device. |
|
| For some patients, special surgical procedures to open up the blockage of neck arteries, such as carotid endarterectomy or stenting, can help prevent future strokes. |
|
| During carotid endarterectomy, sufentanil produced EEG patterns and reductions in cerebral blood flow and oxygen utilization comparable to those of fentanyl. |
|
| Increased demand for this procedure, as an alternative to surgical carotid endarterectomy, may have a significant impact on health care costs and service delivery. |
|
| Carotid endarterectomy complicated by stroke before clopidogrel therapy. |
|
| This project was developed to follow publications done especially by G. M. Biasit and A. N. Nicolaides showing the usefulness of computers analysis to improve selection of patients for carotid endarterectomy. |
|
| Investigators then randomly selected 828 patients to receive an operation called a carotid endarterectomy. |
|
| Carotid stenting offers the potential for a less invasive alternative to endarterectomy, the current standard of care in treating carotid stenosis. |
|
| The study participants were part of the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial. |
