摘要

A 67-year-old female presented with subacute transient visual disturbances in her left eye and subacute watershed infarctions in the left MCA territory due to a long segment chronic internal carotid artery (ICA) near-occlusion following ICA stenting (CAS). Angioplasty was performed using two newly designed stents (CARESTO® heal, Acandis, Pforzheim, Germany) from the ICA origin into the cavernous segment without complications, with a favorable clinical outcome.
