Abstract

The continuation of antiplatelet agents in the periprocedural period after carotid stenting (transfemoral carotid artery stenting [TFCAS] and transcarotid artery revascularization [TCAR]) procedures is believed to be mandatory to minimize the risk of periprocedural stroke. However, the optimal antiplatelet regimen is unclear, with some advocating dual antiplatelet therapy, and others supporting the use of P2Y12 inhibitors alone. The objective of our study was to evaluate the periprocedural effect of P2Y12 inhibitors for TFCAS and TCAR.
