OBJECTIVE. The study aimed to raise an efficacy of motor functions after stenting of precerebral arteries in acute period of ischemic stroke in patients of elderly and senile age. MATERIAL AND METHODS. Treatment efficacy was assessed according to dynamics of neurological status, data of duplex scanning of brachiocephalic vessels, index of mobility «Rivermed», scale «Bartel» in 30 patients. RESULTS. Stenting of precerebral arteries in acute period of ischemic stroke facilitated to regress of motor disorders and normalized cerebral hemodynamics. CONCLUSIONS. Stenting is an alternative method to carotid endarterectomy. This approach should be applied in patients with expressed carotid stenosis in combination with accompanied diseases and high surgical risk.
