Benign Prognosis of Never-Symptomatic Carotid Occlusion
Neurol 54:878-882, Powers,W.J.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Never-symptomatic carotid occlusion carries a very low risk of subsequent ischemic stroke. This benign prognosis is associated with a low incidence of cerebral hemodynamic compromise in these patients. These data support further the imp ortance of hemodynamic factors in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke in patients with carotid occlusion.
