Peri-procedural Risk with Urgent Carotid Artery Stenting: A Population based Swedvasc Study

Abstract

Current European Society for Vascular Surgery guidelines recommend that patients with a symptomatic carotid stenosis should be operated on within 14 days of onset of symptoms. Recent reports indicate that carotid endarterectomy (CEA) within 2 days of a neurological event may be associated with a higher peri-procedural risk of stroke. Whether urgent carotid artery stenting (CAS) carries a similar high risk is unclear. The aim of this study was to analyze if urgent CAS increases the peri-procedural risks. Retrospective analysis of all CAS registered in Swedvasc, a validated nationwide registry, between January 1, 2005, and March 20, 2014. Only symptomatic patients treated for a stenosis of the internal carotid artery were included. Patients were categorized according to time from index event to surgery; 0-2 days, 3-7 days, 8-14 days, and 15-180 days. Primary outcome was 30 day combined stroke and death rate. 323 patients underwent CAS for symptomatic carotid artery stenosis. The demographic and clinical data were similar in the groups. No procedure related complications or deaths were observed in the urgent CAS group. The 30 day combined stroke and death rate did not differ significantly between the groups; zero of 13 (0%; 95% CI...Continue Reading
