Antiplatelet Therapy for Carotid Artery Stenting

Abstract: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is less invasive and has a lower incidence of systemic complications such as myocardial infarction compared with carotid endarterectomy. However, CAS is known to have a high incidence of ischemic complications due to distal thromboembolism. Progress has been made in the development of various distal protection devices and protection methods aimed at preventing thromboembolism. Similar to these methods, perioperative antiplatelet therapy is also able to play a very important role i… Show more

“…In patients with acute occlusions or relevant stenosis of large extracranial vessels acute stenting is sometimes necessary [8, 9]. Administration of antiplatelets is required to prevent reocclusion of stents [10, 11]. Furthermore, EVT can cause endothelial damage resulting in vessel stenosis, dissections and reocclusions [12, 13].…”

“…Antiplatelets might prevent thrombus formation and vessel reocclusion in damaged vessel. Furthermore, administration of antiplatelets is required to prevent reocclusion of stents [19,20]. However, previous studies showed an increase in bleeding complications in bridging patients who receive additional antiplatelet therapy during endovascular intervention: The ARTIS trial was stopped early because of an increased rate of sICH in the patient group in which infusion of 300 mg aspirin was started within 90 minutes of intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase, with no improvement in outcome.…”

“… 10 11 It is recommended that patients who undergo procedures in the carotid artery receive DAPT (currently aspirin and clopidogrel) throughout the periprocedural period to decrease the risk of stent thrombosis/embolization; however, there is no evidencebased consensus as to how long DAPT should be continued or what kinds of antiplatelet drugs should be given. 39 Data regarding antiplatelet management in patients treated with stent placement in the intracranial cerebral artery are even more limited. Although our dataset included patients from the general population who underwent stent placement or angioplasty in a peripheral artery or intracranial or extracranial cerebral arteries, it was not possible to perform subgroup analysis due to the small number of patients who received stent placement or angioplasty in these vessels.…”
