Reoperation for carotid stenosis is as safe as primary carotid endarterectomy.
J Vasc Surg. 1999; (1): 26-35
Patients with recurrent carotid artery stenosis are sometimes referred for carotid angioplasty and stenting because of reports that carotid reoperation has a higher complication rate than primary carotid endarterectomy. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a difference exists between outcomes of primary carotid endarterectomy and reoperative carotid surgery.
