Risk factors for atherosclerotic carotid stenoses are smoking, arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolaemia. Atherosclerotic carotid artery disease is a risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease (CAD), and in older men the risk of CAD-related death is five times higher than the risk of death related to ischaemic stroke. The prevalence of > 50% carotid stenoses in population-based studies in 6-11% for older men and 5-7% in older women. Diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ischaemia-related ophthalmologic and neurological deficits in the territory of the carotid artery are discussed.
