Abstract:
One hundred and fifty patients with 70 percent or more of carotid steno-ocelusion confirmed by digital subtraction angiography were selected to analyze risk factors for its clinical symptoms.Results of analysis showed that risk for clinical symptom increased with severity of unilateral carotid stenosis (OR = 3.546,95% CI 1.515-8.300,P = 0.004).Whereas presence of "functional complete circle of Willis" was a protective factor for it (OR = 0.208,95 % CI 0.045-0.962,P = 0.045).
