  • Title: [Thromboendarterectomy and angioplasty of the carotid bifurcation. Technical notes].
    Author: Lo Scudo L, Damia S, Di Paola F, Dompè G, Stillo F.
    Journal: Minerva Chir; 1991 May 31; 46(10):523-6. PubMed ID: 1922870.
    Abstract:
    Exceptional surgical reports of widespread atherosclerotic involvement of both internal and external carotid arteries required us to carry out an unusual surgical procedure. During a four years period an original carotid endarterectomy's technique was performed in four patients. We point on the importance of a correct external carotid endarterectomy on maintaining an effective intracranial arterial flow, especially when atherosclerotic lesions are contemporary present in the extra and intracranial internal carotid arteries.
