The role of carotid artery stenting and carotid endarterectomy in cognitive performance: a systematic review

Abstract

Change in cognition is being increasingly recognized as an important outcome measure; however, the role of carotid revascularization on this issue remains to be determined. It is still under debate whether carotid artery stenting and carotid endarterectomy have the same influence on neuropsychological functions. This article systematically reviews recent literature in an attempt to clarify this issue. A total of 32 papers reporting on neurocognition after carotid endarterectomy (n=25), carotid artery stenting (n=4), or carotid artery stenting versus carotid endarterectomy (n=3) were identified. The studies were different for many methodological factors, eg, sample size, type of patients and control group, statistical measure, type of test, timing of assessment, and so on. There was a lack of consensus in defining the improvement or impairment after either carotid artery stenting or carotid endarterectomy. Furthermore, there were nonuneqivocal results regarding the same domain of assessment (memory, visuomotor, attention). Based on available evidence, it is probable that carotid endarterectomy as well as carotid artery stenting do not change neuropsychological function "per se." Assessment of cognition after carotid revasculariz...Continue Reading
