Abstract
Carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is an evolving technique for treating patients with carotid occlusive disease. However, technical and clinical outcomes are closely related to the knowledge and experience of the interventionalist, and procedural mistakes often lead to serious neurological complications. This article discusses the preinterventional workup of a patient selected for CAS, the different steps of a CAS procedure, the potential complications, how to avoid them, and once they occur how to intervene. Finally, a short overview of the follow-up is given.
