Abstract:
Carotid stenosis is one of the important causes of cerebral infarction. It has been demonstrated that carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) can prevent the occurrence of stroke, and its clinical application is continuously increasing. Although CAS is a microinvasive technique, it has some potential complications, such as hemodynamic abnormalities, hyperperfusion syndrome, cerebral infarction, and restenosis. This article reviews the complications of CAS and their management strategies.
