ABSTRACT
Approximately 2% of patients who are evaluated for symptomatic carotid artery disease have complete occlusion of a common carotid artery. Surgical management for the symptomatic carotid occlusion has various options. Surgical treatment for these patients should be decided according to the patient's condition causes of the obstruction and collateral circulations. We report our experience of surgical management for symptomatic carotid occlusion with contralateral carotid stenosis which were successfully treated with subclavian-carotid artery bypass and carotid endarterectomy.
Key Words: Symptomatic carotid artery disease; Subolavian-carotid artery bypass; Carotid endartrectomy
