Abstract
Objective: prospective analysis of 30-day outcomes from stenting procedure in patients with asymptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis depending on the type of implanted stent. Material and Methods: the study included 108 patients who underwent endovascular surgical treatment for asymptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis from 2012 to 2017. Depending on the type of implanted stent the patients were divided into 4 groups (the first (n = 37) – steel, the second (n = 32) -nitilon, the third (n = 20) – doublelayered stents, the fourth (n = 19) – double-layer stents with an inner layer of polyethylene terephthalate. Results: there was no mortality in the studied groups for 30 days after surgery. The cumulative incidence of cerebral circulation disorders within 30 days of carotid angioplasty and stenting was 9.7% (n = 10), with ischemic stroke occurring in 1.85% (n = 2) cases. Conclusion: carotid angioplasty and stenting is a safe and effective method of secondary prevention of cerebral circulation disorders with the level of perioperative complications not exceeding other preventive procedures.
