Carotid stenosis is narrowing of the carotid artery (most often at the bifurcation) due to atherosclerosis, causing transient ischemic attacks or ischemic stroke. Treatment: antiplatelet therapy (aspirin/clopidogrel); statin; control BP/lipids/diabetes/smoking; carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for symptomatic severe (70-99%) or selected moderate stenosis; carotid artery stenting (CAS) for high surgical risk; surveillance for asymptomatic moderate stenosis.
TIA/stroke symptoms; carotid bruit; asymptomatic or symptomatic (amaurosis fugax/hemispheric)
Atherosclerotic plaque narrows the carotid bifurcation, causing embolism or hypoperfusion.
Antiplatelet/statin; control risk factors; CEA for symptomatic severe; CAS for high risk; surveillance
Control BP/lipids/DM; no smoking; antiplatelet/statin.
