  • Title: [Treatment of carotid atherosclerosis. Possibilities and limitations].
    Author: Bogousslavsky J.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1988 Feb 06; 118(5):154-60. PubMed ID: 3278373.
    Abstract:
    Many kinds of treatment have been advocated for stroke prevention, but little is known on what should be the best management of carotid atherosclerosis. The effect of drugs, such as antiaggregants and anticoagulants, on carotid plaques is poorly known, but may be of importance in long-term prophylactic treatment. In this review, the advantages and the limitations of available treatments are discussed.
