ABSTRACT

Acute cerebrovascular accident prevention is one of the most important medical and social issues. Revascularization after open reconstructive surgery is of particular technical difficulty due to structural changes of vascular bed and adhesion-related complications. Repeated carotid artery bypass grafting is not enough investigated and technically complex method that is associated with high operational risk. We performed stenting of the proximal anastomosis of the carotid-subclavian shunt using the cerebral protection system with right femoral and left radial approaches. This clinical case demonstrates the possibilities of modern endovascular surgery in the management of patients with extremely high cardiovascular risk.

Keywords: atherosclerosis, restenosis, stroke, prevention, stenting.
