Cerebrovascular Diseases: Stroke Interventions & Carotid Stenting

Cerebrovascular diseases encompass a range of conditions affecting the blood vessels supplying the brain. A stroke caused by a blockage in an artery supplying blood to the brain. It blocks brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients. A stroke is a medical emergency and the treatment is crucial. Early action decrease brain damage and other complications.

Signs and symptoms of a stroke can vary depending on the type of stroke and the part of the brain affected, but common signs and symptoms include:

  • Sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body.
  • Difficulty in speaking and understanding 
  • Trouble seeing in one or both eyes
  • Severe headache
  • Difficulty in walking
  • Trouble with balance or coordination

Carotid Stenting: Carotid stenting refers to a procedure in which a heart surgeon inserts a stent, a slim, metal-mesh tube that expands inside the lumen of carotid artery to widen the artery as a result improving the blood flow to the brain and decrease the risk of stroke.

Overall, carotid artery stenting is a valuable option for certain patients at risk of stroke, but careful patient selection and procedural expertise are crucial to achieving optimal outcomes.
