[CAROTID STENTING EXPERIENCE IN THE ACUTE PHASE OF ISCHEMIC STROKE IN PATIENTS OF ELDERLY AND SENILE AGE].
Age has been shown to be a predictor of neurological complications during carotid stenting (CS). However, carotid stenting in acute period of ischemic stroke has recently been demonstrated safely in patients over 70 and even 80 years. Early intervention is desirable in patients presenting with stroke referable to carotid artery stenosis because of the high incidence of recurrent ischemic events. However, he optimal timing to perform CS in the acute phase of ischemic stroke in elderly remains unclear due to the threat of perioperative complications. In our hospital (Aleksandrovskaya) was searched for consecutive cases of extracranial internal CS procedures performed for symptomatic atherosclerotic carotid stenosis in the acute phase of ischemic stroke in a total of 65 elderly patients. The primary outcome was not statistically different among groups stratified based on intervention timing, with a combined incidence of stroke, MI or death of 5.9 % in patients treated within 2 days, 0% in patients treated between days 3 and 7, 15% in patients treated between days 8 and 14 and 0% in patients treated between days 15 and 30. Our results support the conclusion that early CS (within 2 days) carries no additional risks compared with CAS after 2 days or any other timing of the intervention up to 30 days in elderly.
