O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar o caso de paciente, do sexo feminino, portadora de importante estenose de ambas as artérias carótidas internas, tanto do ponto de vista anatômico quanto hemodinâmico, associada a insuficiência coronária grave, apresentava quadro clínico compatível de acidente vascular cerebral em evolução, tornando imperativa a intervenção cirúrgica imediata; decidida a revascularização do miocárdio simultaneamente à endarterectomia carotídea bilateral, procedimento que pode ser realizado segura e eficazmente, e reservado para os casos onde ambos os territórios estão acometidos e sobrevier a instabilização de algum dos subsistemas em questão.
This report refers to a 69 year old woman, presenting severe stenosis of both carotid arteries, associated with coronary insufficiency. An acute incomplete transitory brain stroke made mandatory the simultaneous surgical approach of bilateral carotid arteries for endarterectomy and myocardial revascularization. The procedure can be performed safely in very selected and unstable cases
