Abstract: In our practice, carotid endarterectomy under regional anesthesia is safe and associated with a very low rate of conversion to general anesthesia.

“…Regional anesthesia for CEA is considered to be safe and associated with a low rate of conversion to general anesthesia. [ 25 ] Possible concerns with regional techniques include remote access to the upper airway, stressful conversion of regional into general anesthesia when necessary, the need for patient cooperation, and the inadvertent subarachnoid or intravascular injection of local anesthetic [ Table 2 ]. [ 26 ]…”

“…Because the awake assessment method used during regional anesthesia can avoid any shunts malfunction incidence [shuntrelated stroke] that may occur in GA with routinely shunt using protocol during CEA procedures. Besides, CEA procedures using GA increases postoperative complications in those patients with myocardial issues [21].…”

“…Besides, CEA procedures using GA increases postoperative complications in those patients with myocardial issues. [ 9 10 ] Between 1968 and 1975, 290 patients were observed under CEA, divided into two groups one with general anesthesia and the second group with regional anesthesia; the first group consisting of 188 patients performed the CEA procedure with keeping shunt in all CEA patients. Three deaths were recorded in this category, plus some complications of motor impairment and weakness of extremities.…”
