A multicentric study of different methods of open surgical cerebral revascularization for internal carotid artery orifice stenosis

CONCLUSION: Transposition of the ICA into the lateral wall of the ECA is not accompanied by the risk of ICA restenosis due to the absence of inflammation of the internal artery wall after endarterectomy. Thus, this technique can be an alternative to CEA and be routinely used in case of local hemodynamically significant stenosis of the ICA orifice. Classical CEA with patch implantation is the least preferable operation due to the high risk of ICA restenosis in the mid-term and long-term follow-up.PMID:37714319 | DOI:10.1016/j.cpcardiol.2023.102082
