Carotid Artery Stenting—Indications and Technique
摘要
Carotid endarterectomy has traditionally been the primary strategy for severe carotid artery stenoses, whether asymptomatic and symptomatic.

This chapter discusses the indications, techniques, and potential complications associated with CAS, providing a comprehensive overview of its use for clinicians.
