This study analyzes the safety and efficacy of carotid angioplasty/stenting (CAS) with embolic protection devices in high surgical risk (HSR) patients. PATIENT POPULATION/METHODS: This study includes 100 consecutive HSR patients, who were followed prospectively, and had carotid duplex ultrasounds at 1 month and every 6 months thereafter. A Kaplan-Meier lifetable analysis was used to estimate survival rates, rates of freedom from stroke, and freedom from > or =50% in-stent restenosis.
