A case of atraumatic convexal subarachnoid haemorrhage due to unusual cause
Conclusions This case shows that ICA stenosis can cause convexal SAH and it should therefore be added to the differential diagnosis of atraumatic SAH. The association is under recognised and can be missed due to the unusual location of the blood and failure to image the extra cranial carotid arteries.

An ischemic stroke patient with free floating thrombus in carotid artery, successfully treated by open carotid thrombectomy: a first case report in Nepal.
We present a case in which we performed open surgery and achieved successful retrieval of the thrombus. A 40 year-old male patient presented with ischemic stroke and mild left hemiparesis. Computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed infarction in the right parieto-occipital area. Carotid Doppler study showed carotid stenosis on the right side. Further investigation with CT angiography of the neck vessels confirmed significant carotid artery occlusion with a free-floating thrombus in the internal carotid artery. Carotid endarterectomy was planned under EEG monitoring. The right carotid artery was exposed w...

“Opening the Unopenable”: Endovascular Treatment in a Patient with Three Months' Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion and Hemispheric Symptomatic Hypoperfusion
We report the case of a patient admitted to our hospital with an atherothrombotic ischemic stroke due to symptomatic acute ICAO, who developed a recurrent stroke with hemispheric hypoperfusion and was treated in the emergency department with ICAO revascularization after 60 days of occlusion finding.

Results of Early Versus Delayed Carotid Endarterectomy After a Recent Mild to Moderate Stroke
Patients with recent stroke represent a heterogeneous group in which the risks of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) vary according to the clinical presentation and the findings on imaging studies. Herein we compared the results of early vs delayed CEA after a recent stroke in patients with similar neurologic presentation.

Development of a Validated Model to Predict 30-Day Stroke and One-Year Survival After Carotid Endarterectomy for Asymptomatic Stenosis Using the Vascular Quality Initiative
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been shown to be an effective treatment for patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis when perioperative stroke rates are low and patients survive long enough to benefit from the intervention. Our objective was to develop and to validate a simple risk prediction index for 30-day stroke and 1-year mortality to guide optimal selection of patients for CEA.

Carotid endarterectomy versus carotid angioplasty for stroke prevention: a systematic review and meta-analysis
This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of carotid endarterectomy (CE) compared with carotid angioplasty (CA) in preventing stroke. Whether the use of CE is more efficient in preventing stroke than C...

The urgent need for contemporary clinical trials in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis
Asymptomatic extracranial internal carotid artery atherosclerotic stenosis increases with age and is more common in men. Studies performed more than 2 decades ago showed that carotid endarterectomy reduced the rate of stroke in carefully selected patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis compared with medical therapy in the long term. Those trials were completed more than 20 years ago and with advances in the treatment of atherosclerotic disease, the question has been raised to as to whether endarterectomy is still of value for patients with asymptomatic narrowing. Perioperative risk of carotid revascularization procedur...

Pre-operative Carotid Plaque Echolucency Assessment has no Predictive Value for Long-Term Risk of Stroke or Cardiovascular Death in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy
This study evaluated the prognostic value of pre-operative plaque echolucency for future stroke and cardiovascular death in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy in the first Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial (ACST-1).

Safety of Simultaneous Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting and Carotid Endarterectomy Versus Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Although our results cannot rule out a treatment-group effect because of lack of power, a superiority of the synchronous combined carotid endarterectomy+CABG approach seems unlikely. Five-year follow-up of patients is still ongoing.Clinical Trial Registration—URL: https://www.controlled-trials.com. Unique identifier: ISRCTN13486906.

Contralateral Occlusion Does Not Predispose to Higher Stroke Rates after Carotid Endarterectomy
Multiple small studies have suggested that contralateral internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion is associated with higher stroke rates after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) than when contralateral ICA is not occluded. This situation has therefore been designated as a “high-risk” situation and been established as a criterion for carotid stenting. Our objective was to use a large multi-institutional clinical database to assess the effect of contralateral ICA occlusion on 30-day stroke and death after CEA.
