  1. Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Murray Shames, M.D. Assistant Professor of Surgery and Radiology

  2. Fundamentals: • Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the USA (200 000) • Incidence 160/100 000 • HTN most common cause • 30% associated with extracranial carotid stenosis • Significant disability $7.5 billion (1976)

  3. Relative Risk for Ischemia: • Age: • 10/100,000 < 45 yr • 1000/100,000 > 75 yr • Hypertension: 6x • Atrial fibrillation: 6x • Prior stroke/TIA: 5 x • Asymptomatic carotid bruit: 3x • Smoking: 2x

  4. Pathology: Carotid Artery Lesion 90 % atherosclerosis 10% fibromuscular dysplasia, intimal dissection, inflammatory lesions, radiation

  5. Atherosclerosis: • Similar L-R distribution • 40% of lesions at proximal ICA • 20% of lesions at proximal vertebral • Aortic arch disease in 10% of patients

  6. Other causes of stroke: • Cardiac embolus • atrial fibrillation • heart valve disease • Rupture of intracranial aneurysm • Intra-cranial hemorrhage • Carotid artery dissection • Carotid aneurysm • Fibromuscular dysplasia • Radiation

  7. Fibromuscular Dysplasia: • Carotid second most common site of disease • 92% Women • 30% of patients intracranial aneurysms • Degenerative process involving long, unbranched medium sized vessels • Hormonal, mechanical, unusual distribution of vasa vasorum • Histology • Intimal fibroplasia • Medial Hyperplasia • Medial Fibroplasia (most common)- replacement of media with dense fibrous connective tissue • Perimedial dysplasia (renals)

  8. Carotid Dissection: • Traumatic disruption of intima • Compression of true lumen

  9. Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis: • Intimal injury (hemodynamics) • Nodular deposition of fat in arterial intima • Associated inflammatory response – fibroblast, smooth muscle cell proliferation • Slow accumulation of lipoproteins • Calcium precipitation in the primary fatty plaque.

  10. Hemodynamics: • High shear stress • Turbulent flow • Flow seperation • Propensity for outer wall opposite flow divider

  11. Atherosclerosis: • Flow reducing • Embolic • Clot • Platelets • Cholesterol debris • Thrombosis

  12. Complex Carotid Plaques: • Calcification • Loss of intimal continuity • Ulcer formation • Subintimal necrosis • Plaque hemorrhage

  13. Presentation: • Asymptomatic • Transient Ischemic Attacks • Cerebral Infarction

  14. Asymptomatic: • Natural history- progression of disease • >80% stenosis associated with 35% risk of symptoms or occlusion in 6 months

  15. Surveillance: Duplex scan q 6-12 months

  16. Transient Ischemic Attacks: • reversible, painless neurologic deficit, lasting 1-5 minutes • Complete recovery < 24 h

  17. Transient Ischemic Attacks: • a harbinger of stroke (30-40% of patients with surgically accessible carotid stenosis) • No loss of consciousness - syncope • Amaurosis fugax: embolus to ipsilateral retinal artery • Aphasia • Contralateral paralysis, paresis, paresthesias • Stroke rate at 1 ,3 , 5 years 23%, 27%, 45% • Crescendo TIA’s/ Stroke in evolution

  18. Stroke: • Brain infarction • 50% preceded by TIA • Embolic or thrombosis with inadequate collaterals • Symptoms greater than 24 hours • 1/3 resolve, 1/3 deteriorate, 1/3 remain the same

  19. Sequalae of Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion: • propagation of thrombus to intracranial arteries • embolization of thrombus • both can result in cerebral infarction • outcome depends on adequacy of collateral flow: Circle of Willis

  20. ‘VIRULENCE’ OF CAROTID ARTERY DISEASE BASED ON CLINICAL SYMPTOMS Clinical entity Risk of subsequent stroke Recent (< 4 mo) stroke High (10-15%) Recent hemispheric TIA unstable plaque Recent amaurosis fugax Previous stroke, TIA, amaurosis Silent infarct CT or MRI Asymptomatic bruit Low (1-3%) Non-hemispheric symptoms Hypertension

  21. Clinical Evaluation: • History and Physical Exam • Degree, duration of symptoms • Extent of recovery • Presence of infarction on CT/MRI • Cerebrovascular Imaging • Duplex • Angiography • MRA

  22. Velocity Criteria: PSV, ICA/CCA Ratio: • >50 % stenosis: PSV > 125 cm/sec ICA/CCA ratio>2.0 • >60% stenosis: PSV > 230-270 cm/sec ICA/CCA ratio>3.5 • >70 % stenosis: PSV > 290-325 cm/sec ICA:CCA ratio>4.0 • >80 % stenosis: EDV > 140 cm/sec

  23. The Doppler Principle f fo skin  Velocity Profile v Sample Volume Doppler Measurement of Blood Flow Velocity:

  24. Duplex Ultrasound:

  25. ICA STENOSIS DUPLEX SCAN MRA <50% DR PSV < 125 cm/s ICA/CCA ratio < 2 < 50% DR 50-74% DR PSV > 125 cm/s EDV < 125 cm/s 2 < ICA/CCA ratio < 4 50-74% DR 75-99% DR PSV > 300 cm/s EDV > 125 cm/s ICA/CCA ratio > 4 75-99% DR short (<3 cm) flow gap No ICA flow CCA EDV = 0 Long (>3 cm) flow gap No intracranial ICA signal Criteria of carotid stenosis: Occlusion

  26. Contrast Angiography: High grade ICA stenosis

  27. High Resolution B-mode Imaging: proximal

  28. Magnetic Resonance Angiography:

  29. Magnetic Resonance Angiography:

  30. The ultimate goal of vascular testing is to identify clinically significant carotid disease, so that treatment can be applied and risk of stroke reduced.

  31. Benefit of CEA for Asymptomatic Stenosis: Annual stroke risk Medical tx CEA p value VA 1993 (n=444) 2.4 % 1.2 % > 0.05 ACAS 1995 (n=1662) 2.2 % 1.0 % 0.004

  32. Benefit of CEA for Symptomatic Stenosis: Annual stroke risk Medical tx CEA p value NASCET 1991 > 70 % stenosis 13 % 4.5 % < 0.001 NASCET 1998 50 - 70 % stenosis 4.4 % 3.1 % 0.045

  33. Results of surgery vs. medical therapy: • Absolute Reduction • Symptomatic patients in Stroke Risk • NASCET: > 70% DR 17% @ 2 yr • NASCET: 50-59% 10% @ 5 yr • ECST: > 70% DR 12% @ 3 yr • Asymptomatic patients • ACAS: > 60% DR 6.3% @ 5 yr *multicenter, random assignment - angiography controlled
