Over the last decades stent placement of carotid stenosis has been introduced as an alterntive to endoarterectomy in symptomatic and asymptomatic stenosis. However the major risk of stent placement appears to be the possibility of periprocedural embolic strokes due to release debris during the several phases of endovascular manipulation. For this reason new techniques such stenting with cerebral protection devices being already introduced. The aim of this work is to present the outcome in our study population, 5 years experience, that have been received an alternative method consisting of unprotected self-expandable stentig, without pre and post dilatation.

Abstract
Over the last decades stent placement of carotid stenosis has been introduced as an alterntive to endoarterectomy in symptomatic and asymptomatic stenosis. However the major risk of stent placement appears to be the possibility of periprocedural embolic strokes due to release debris during the several phases of endovascular manipulation. For this reason new techniques such stenting with cerebral protection devices being already introduced. The aim of this work is to present the outcome in our study population, 5 years experience, that have been received an alternative method consisting of unprotected self-expandable stentig, without pre and post dilatation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
