  • Title: Carotid artery stenting by direct percutaneous puncture.
    Author: Guimaraens L, Theron J, Casasco A, Cuellar H.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 2011 Jul; 54(1):249-51. PubMed ID: 21315547.
    Abstract:
    Carotid artery stenting is usually performed by a femoral approach. When the patient's anatomy forbids this or other distal access to the carotids, a direct access by percutaneous puncture may be used. We present two cases in which a successful stenting of the carotids with the use of a cerebral protection device was performed.
