Whether cerebral protection during carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is associated with a lower risk of periprocedural stroke or death remains to be established. We report on 80 patients randomized in the CAS arm of the Endarterectomy Versus Angioplasty in Patients With Symptomatic Severe Carotid Stenosis trial comparing CAS (with or without cerebral protection) with carotid surgery in patients with recently symptomatic, severe carotid stenosis.
