The paper analyzes outcomes of 12 internal carotid artery (ICA) graftings for repeat stenosis after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in 11 patients. In 6 cases restenosis occurred after eversion CEA, in 5 - after conventional patch CEA, and in 1 case - after ICA patch angioplasty for post-CEA restenosis. Critical restenosis >75% in reconstruction area was an indication for surgical intervention. There was 1 case of graft thrombosis in early postoperative period with hemispherical stroke and lethal outcome. Eight patients were examined in late postoperative period. Mean follow-up was 34?+/-?8.44 months (from 16 to 48 months). No cerebrovascular disturbances in operated ICA feeding area were detected. In 6 patients graft patency was good, while 2 smoking patients with diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia demonstrated repeat restenosis of proximal anastomosis >70%.

D016893 Carotid Stenosis Narrowing or stricture of any part of the CAROTID ARTERIES, most often due to atherosclerotic plaque formation. Ulcerations may form in atherosclerotic plaques and induce THROMBUS formation. Platelet or cholesterol emboli may arise from stenotic carotid lesions and induce a TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK; CEREBROVASCULAR ACCIDENT; or temporary blindness (AMAUROSIS FUGAX).
