Remodeling of the carotid artery after PTA has not been described before. Our results confirm that carotid angioplasty has an acceptable patency rate at 1 year.It has been suggested that endovascular treatment of carotid stenosis should include placement of a stent.Our results indicate that this may not be necessary unless the initial PTA result is a reduction in stenosis of<20%. |
