Introduction. Carotid angioplasty and internal carotid artery stenting is the therapeutic method of choice in the treatment of carotid restenosis, but when it is not technically feasible (expressed tortuosity of supraaortic branches, calcifications, presence of pathological elongation of very long lesions) a redo surgery is indicated. Objective. The aim of our study was to examine the benefits and risks of redo surgery in patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic significant internal carotid artery restenosis and its impact on early and late morbidity and mortality. Methods. The study included 45 patients who were surgically treated for a hemodynamically significant internal carotid artery restenosis from January 2000 to December 2009. Surgical techniques included redo endarterectomy with direct suture, redo anderectomy with a patch plastic and resection with Dacron tubular graft interposition. The patients were followed for postoperative neurological ischemic events (transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke), local surgical complications and lethal outcome after one month, six months, one year and after two years). Results. In the early postoperative period (up to 30 days) there were no lethal outcomes. TIA was diagnosed in four patients (8.8%), minor stroke in one patient (2.2%) and one patient (2.2%) also had cranial nerve injury. After two years two patients died (4.4%) due to fatal myocardial infarction, three patients (6.5%) had ipsilateral stroke and one patient developed graft occlusion (2%). Conclusion. In the case of symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid restenosis that cannot be treated by carotid percutaneous angioplasty, redo surgical treatment is therapeutic option with an acceptable rate of early and late postoperative complications.

Ischemic Events

A 56-year-old female with a giant partially thrombosed unruptured carotid-ophthalmic aneurysm was treated with a Pipeline flow diverter. Three months after the procedure, in concomitance with the discontinuation of one of the antiplatelet medications, the patient suffered from a minor stroke and relapsing transient ischemic attacks. The angiography demonstrated the occlusion of the internal carotid artery, and a perfusion-weighted CT scan showed a condition of hypoperfusion. The patient underwent a double-barrel extraintracranial bypass. The postoperative course was uneventful and she has experienced no further ischemic events to date.

Combined rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm and acute thrombosis of internal carotid artery is extremely rare but fatal combination resulting in high mortality rate. Presented case, shows successfully performed simultaneous surgery of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm and acute cerebrovascular insult caused by thrombosis of carotid artery in 81 year-old male. Post operative course was uneventfull. At 24 months follow up patient was in good condition, with full neurological recovery. Simultaneous surgical treatment of acute occlusive carotid disease and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA) seems to be the only life saving procedure for this rare, but very complicated condition. To our knowledge, this is the first reported successful simultaneous surgical treatment of RAAA and acute thrombosis of internal carotid artery.

<p>This review article presents an analysis of the world literature devoted to treating patients with tandem stenosis of the intra- and extra-cranial parts of the internal carotid artery. We indicate the frequency of tandem lesion occurrence and describe the applied instrumental methods of its diagnosis. The review demonstrates the results of tandem stenosis surgical treatment in both early and more modern studies and describes the possibilities of endovascular correction of extra- and intra-cranial stenosis of the internal carotid artery. The authors emphasise the lack of large-scale studies — including randomised studies — regarding combined, tandem carotid stenosis and the need for further studies.</p><p>Received 30 March 2021.

Introduction. True aneurysms of the extracranial internal carotid artery are rare lesions. Surgical treatment is considered to be the best therapeutic option. However, the use of the intraluminal shunt remains controversial. Case report. We reported a case of a giant extracranial internal carotid artery aneurysm treated by reconstructive surgery. A 76-year-old woman was referred with a pulsatile mass inside her mouth, associated with dizziness and dysarthria. There was no history of cerebrovascular symptoms, neck pain, or cervical trauma. A magnetic resonance scan showed a 45 mm aneurysm of the internal carotid artery (ICA), and kinking of ICA. Angiography demonstrated a saccular ICA aneurysm, with a lengthening and tortuosity of the ICA. The aneurysm and the carotid artery branches were easily exposed through a standard anterior cervical incision. After resection of the aneurysm, a Javid shunt was inserted between the common and internal carotid arteries, and end-to-end repair of ICA was easily performed due to ICA redundancy. The aneurysm was of atherosclerotic origin. Four months after the operation, the patient showed a complete recovery from peripheral neurological deficit. Discussion. Our results show that surgical reconstruction is a satisfactory therapeutic choice in the management of extracranial carotid artery aneurysms in order to avoid rupture, thromboembolism and cerebrovascular insufficiency. To date, there has been little experience with endoluminal exclusion techniques and the long-term effectiveness is still uncertain. .
