Evaluation of Neurocognitive Abilities in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy Surgery
CONCLUSION: The purpose of CEA in the past was the prevention of ischemic stroke and cerebrovascular disease (CVD) rather than neurocognitive recovery. Factors affecting neurocognition in CEA are multifactorial. Preservation and improvement of neurocognition are more important than any other period of history. By prioritizing cognitive abilities in the treatment of carotid stenosis, individualization of the treatment will help maximize the increase in cognitive abilities by providing optimum benefit to the patient of each factor.PMID:33635257 | DOI:10.1532/hsf.3371

The Relationship Between Physician and Center Case Volume on Outcomes of TransCarotid Artery Revascularization
It has been suggested that the annual hospital volume of cases may affect the number of adverse events following carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Transfemoral carotid stenting (TFCAS) was found to have an extended learning curve with an estimated minimum of 25 cases for the success of the stenting procedure. One prior study indicated that transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) is being performed with excellent stroke and mortality rates even in the early stages of the surgeons ’ learning curve.
