Long-term results of carotid artery stenting in patients 80 years and older.

Introduction: We report our experience about carotid artery stenting (CAS) in patients 80 years and older.

Materials And Methods: Out of 582 patients who underwent CAS at our institution from January 1999 to June 2010, 102 patients (group A) were 80 years or older. The clinical data of these patients were retrospectively reviewed, outcomes analyzed, and compared with those of younger patients who underwent CAS during the same period (group B).
