Carotid angioplasty and stenting is a procedure to Treat Carotid Artery Disease which is a condition where fatty deposits form in the carotid arteries that are located on both sides of the neck and supplies blood to the brain. This procedure helps to free up clogged arteries and to restore blood flow to the brain, often as a measure to treat or prevent stroke. It is done by inserting a tiny balloon in the clogged arteries and inflating them in order to widen the area so that blood can flow freely to the brain.
Stenting is then done by placing a metal coil or stent in the affected artery which helps keep the artery open while decreasing the chance of narrowing it again.
Symptoms Of Carotid Artery Disease:
What is carotid artery disease?
Carotid artery disease occurs when fatty deposits (plaques) clog the blood vessels that deliver blood to your brain and head (carotid arteries).
What happens if your carotid arteries are blocked?
The blockage increases your risk of stroke, a medical emergency that occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or seriously reduced.
How long does it take to put a stent in the carotid artery?
Carotid stenting usually takes about 1-2 hours but may take longer in some circumstances.
What percent of artery blockage requires a stent?
An artery should be clogged at least 70 percent before a stent should be placed
