CAR 6. Duplex Ultrasound Surveillance of Transcarotid Artery Revascularization Patients in Routine Clinical Practice

Postoperative duplex ultrasound (DUS) surveillance after transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) focuses on issues commonly associated with carotid artery stenting, primarily in-stent restenosis, but also the common carotid artery (CCA) access site. To address limited specific guidelines, DUS data from patients treated with TCAR in routine clinical practice were collected to illustrate expected values and compared with literature values.
