Use of a novel embolic filter in carotid artery stenting: 30 ‐Day results from the EMBOLDEN Clinical Study
ConclusionIn patients at high risk for CEA undergoing CAS, the GEF not only showed high rates of successful deployment but also met the primary endpoint of low death, stroke, and MI rates, thus demonstrating safety and effectiveness.

Carotid stenting versus endarterectomy for the treatment of carotid artery stenosis: Contemporary results from a large single center study
ConclusionThe risk of the composite endpoint did not differ significantly between those undergoing CAS versus CEA. The stenting group demonstrated a higher rate of periprocedural stroke, which was also apparent when patients were stratified by stenting department. These differences were likely driven by variation in baseline medical comorbidities and symptom status. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Feasibility of carotid artery stenting with double cerebral embolic protection in high‐risk patients
ConclusionsIn our experience, in high‐risk patients with high‐risk lesions, the use of double EPD (proximal and distal) is safe and effective in minimizing the risk of cerebral embolization, but, to validate such a technique in wide range of patients, further studies are warranted. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation using the left transcarotid approach in patients with previous ipsilateral carotid endarterectomy
Conclusions. TAVI through a left transcarotid approach in patients previously operated on for ipsilateral CEA is feasible and safe. The presence of a previous ipsilateral CEA represents no more a limitation to the utilization of this promising access route. At short‐term follow‐up, mortality and major complications rates are low.

Impact of Glomerular filtration rate on clinical outcomes after carotid artery revascularization in 11,832 patients from the CARE registry
ConclusionsPatients with CKD have a greater number of comorbidities and worse unadjusted in‐hospital and 30‐day outcomes; CKD was not, however, an independent predictor of in‐hospital and 30‐day outcomes after carotid artery revascularization. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Carotid artery stenting according to the “tailored CAS” algorithm performed in the very elderly patients: The thirty day outcome
ConclusionsSymptomatic elderly is a group of highest CAS risk and the use of “tailored CAS” algorithm does not equalize CAS risk in this patients' group. “Tailored CAS” remains a safe procedure for asymptomatic elderly as well as symptomatic and asymptomatic young patients.
