Introduction: Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a surgery aimed at removing atherosclerotic plaque from the carotid artery. There are classical and eversion CEA techniques. The eversion technique is the most popular because it does not require the use of implants.

Materials And Methods: The sample was formed by completely including all cases of carotid endarterectomy ( = 65,388) performed during the period from May 1, 2015 to November 1, 2023. Depending on the symptomatic/asymptomatic nature of the stenosis, all patients were divided into two groups: group 1 - = 39,172 (75.
Aim: Analysis of in-hospital and long-term results of carotid endarterectomy (CEE) in patients with different severity of coronary atherosclerosis.
Material And Methods: This comparative, retrospective, open study for the period from January 2013 to April 2020 included 1719 patients operated on for occlusive-stenotic lesions of the internal carotid arteries (ICA). Classical and eversion CEA were used as revascularization strategies.
Goal: Analysis of the results of thrombectomy from the arteries of the lower extremities in patients with COVID-19 against the background of different severity of respiratory failure.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective, cohort, comparative study for the period from 05/01/2022 to 20/07/2022 included 305 patients with acute thrombosis of the arteries of the lower extremities against the background of the course of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant). Depending on the type of oxygen support, 3 groups of patients were formed: group 1 ( = 168) - oxygen insufflation through nasal cannulas; group 2 ( = 92) - non-invasive lung ventilation; and group 3 ( = 45) - artificial lung ventilation.
This review of the literature discusses the solution of unresolved issues related to carotid endarterectomy in Russia: (1) A program has been created for choosing the tactics of revascularization of patients with simultaneous atherosclerotic lesions of the coronary and carotid arteries; (2) Using the methods of computer modeling, studying the genetics and morphology of restenosis, it was found that the classic carotid endarterectomy with plasty of the reconstruction zone with a patch is an unsafe type of revascularization; (3) An eversion carotid endarterectomy with transposition of the internal carotid artery over the hypoglossal nerve has been developed, which makes it possible to prevent damage to the latter during repeated carotid endarterectomy for restenosis; (4) It has been established that carotid endarterectomy is associated with a high risk of complications in patients over 75 years of age; (5) It has been proven that emergency carotid endarterectomy in the first hours after the development of a stroke is not safe because. combined with the maximum number of all non-favorable cardiovascular events; (6) 3 new types of carotid endarterectomy with carotid glomus preservation have been developed.

About 10% of PD cases have been linked to specific gene mutations (Zafar and Yaddanapudi, 2022) including the gene that encodes a RING domain-containing E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin. PD-Parkin patients have a younger onset, longer disease duration, and more severe clinical symptoms in comparison to PD patients with unknown causative PD mutations (Zhou et al.
