Internal carotid artery stenosis - angioplasty with stenting or endarterectomy? A restrospective, single-center, observational study.

Carotid revascularization (stenting or endarterectomy) has proved to be an effective form of treatment, superior to medical therapy alone in stroke prevention.<b>Aim:</b> This study aimed to investigate the impact of carotid artery stenting (CAS) <i>vs</i> carotid artery endarterectomy (CEA) on outcomes in patients treated for unilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis.
