Carotid artery stenting: current role of proximal neuroprotection and technical advancements in stroke prevention
For more than 50 years, carotid endarterectomy has been considered the gold standard therapy to prevent stroke in patients with carotid artery disease. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged in the last 15 years as minimally invasive alternative to surgery, especially in patients at high surgical risk. Recent randomized trials have challenged this concept reporting a relatively high incidence rate (4–6%) of post-CAS neurological adverse events. The aim of this study is to evaluate the current role of CAS in all-comers with advanced carotid disease, managed with mandatory proximal neuroprotection in a high-volume c...
