Advancements in Carotid Artery Surgery: Ensuring Best Practices for Patient Care

Scientific and epidemiologic progress in carotid artery surgery has led to significant improvements in patient outcomes and refined surgical techniques. According to expert surgeons, carotid surgery has been proven to prevent stroke in both asymptomatic and symptomatic patients when performed by skilled surgeons with quantifiable results.

The ongoing challenge in the field is to continually refine techniques to ensure the greatest possible margins of safety and educate surgeons worldwide to uphold uniform standards of care. In recent years, carotid artery stenting has emerged as a viable alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in selected cases, offering skilled practitioners another effective treatment option.
