Prevalence and incidence of Carotid-Fetal-Posterior syndrome

Discussion/Co nclusion: CFP syndrome has a low incidence and low prevalence among symptomatic carotid stenosis cases. Given lower prevalence of CFP syndrome among referred cases than local, CFP-syndrome seems susceptible to underdiagnosis. On the other hand, few cases with suspicion of CFP syndrome had CFP syndro me, why CFP syndrome also seems susceptible to overdiagnosis if detailed assessment is not employed.
