Long-Term Outcome of Symptomatic Patients Undergoing Hybrid Revascularisation for Extracranial Carotid Artery Tandem Stenosis.

CONCLUSIONS: In this small case series, hybrid revascularisation of carotid tandem lesions in symptomatic patients seems feasible and safe. Long-term data show a relatively high number of any adverse events. These surgical outcomes need to be offset against the natural course in patients with a symptomatic carotid tandem lesion.
