Carotid Dissection with Permanent and Transient Occlusion or Severe Stenosis
Neurol 60:271-275, Kremer,C.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
This study suggests that ICAD has a benign long-term prognosis with low rates of ipsilateral carotid territory and any stroke and that the stroke rate in ICAD is not related to the persistence of severe carotid stenosis or occlusion. These results question the rationale of surgical or catheter-based revascularization in patients with ICAD.
