“…It explained why most postoperative strokes did not occur immediately but typically 2 to 3 days after surgery. This opinion was further supported by the result of Meleca and Marks 5 which is based on a study of 20 patients. It suggested that carotid artery reconstruction was better than ligation alone in terms of preventing neurological complication.…”

“…Sessa et al 10 reported a successful series with a 35% disease‐free survival rate at 2 years. Other articles of this series also reported justifiable oncologic results despite advanced cancer involving the carotid artery 2,3,6,7 . Thus when one weighs the oncologic effectiveness of this procedure against the postoperative risk of neurologic deficits, which occurred in approximately 10% of the patients, this outcome remains within the acceptable range.…”

“…The probability of stroke after carotid artery ligation is significant and predicting the stroke risk of an individual patient during internal carotid artery reconstruction or after ligation is challenging. Historically, stroke rates between 17% and 58% and mortality between 15% and 20% after carotid artery ligation have been reported . Adequate reconstruction of the common or internal carotid artery reduces the risk of stroke to 3.7%, according to our review.…”
