  • Title: Carotid angioplasty in a patient with coronary artery bypass surgery with occluded grafts, severe aortic stenosis, moderate systolic dysfunction and 100% contralateral carotid occlusion: lessons to be learned.
    Author: Ahmed W, Khatri I, Shah SM.
    Journal: J Pak Med Assoc; 2010 Mar; 60(3):236-8. PubMed ID: 20225789.
    Abstract:
    Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as an attractive alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA). However, CAS in a high risk patient carries significant morbidity/mortality. We report a successful CAS procedure in an extremely high risk case with a unique underlying comorbid combination not previously reported in the literature.
