Carotid Artery Stenting Protected With an Emboli Containment System
Stroke 33:1308-1314, Whitlow,P.L.,et al, 2002
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Protected carotid stenting was performed successfully and safely in this study early in the experience with cerebrovascular protection devices. Particulate emboli are frequent with stenting, and cerebral protection will likely be necessary to minimize stroke. Randomized trials comparing protected carotid stenting with endarterectomy are warranted.
