Article Abstract
This study indicates that low-dose ASA(75 mg/d)reduces the number of postoperative strokes without complete recovery within 1 week.Overall neurological events are insignificantly reduced,as also mortality.The use of low-dose ASA(75 mg)seems safe and effective in reducing cerebrovascular events after carotid endarterectomy.
