ABSTRACT
Carotid artery stenosis is the main cause for transient ischemic attack(TIA)and cerebral ischemic stroke. Carotid artery stenting(CAS)therapy has provided a new approach for carotid artery stenosis with safety of causing slight wound and less complication. It also gives opportunities to the patients with contraindication to carotid artery endarterectomy(CAE). There is similar tendency between CAS and CAE involving the secondary prevention of stroke in experiments. The safety and efficacy of the stenting depend on the normative operation and complete evaluation of cerebral hemodynamics and functions before hand. With application of the technique of preventive filter devices and progressing preventive technology against restenosis, the interventional therapy is going to play a more important role in the therapy of carotid stenosis.
