Why the study?
Does carotid endarterectomy provide long-term symptom relief and comparable survival in patients with non-hemispheric ischemia compared to a general carotid endarterectomy cohort?
Does carotid endarterectomy provide long-term symptom relief and comparable survival in patients with non-hemispheric ischemia compared to a general carotid endarterectomy cohort?
Carotid endarterectomy provides long-term relief of non-hemispheric ischemia symptoms with stroke and survival rates comparable to those seen in patients with anterior cerebral ischemia or asymptomatic stenoses.
