Zusammenfassung

Die Stentbehandlung von Stenosen der A. carotis (CAS) ist zu einer Alternative für die Karotisendatherektomie (CEA) herangereift. Vor allem jüngere Patienten und symptomatische Patienten mit einer kontralateralen Okklusion der A. carotis profitieren von einer CAS-Prozedur. Die Auswahl des geeigneten Patienten, ausreichende Erfahrung mit verschiedenen Techniken der Prozedur sowie die Kenntnis der Strategien zur Vermeidung und Beherrschung von Komplikationen sind unabdingbare Voraussetzung für eine erfolgreiche Prozedur. In Zentren mit großer Erfahrung liegt die periprozedurale Komplikationsrate heutzutage mit 2–3% deutlich unter der in randomisierten Studien berichteten. Mit fachgerechter Anwendung der verschiedenen zur Verfügung stehenden Devices lässt sich die Prozedur auf den individuellen Patienten zuschneiden. Komplikationen wie Hyperperfusion und intrazerebrale Blutung, Ruptur von Seitenästen der A. carotis externa oder der A. carotis interna sowie Probleme, die durch „slow flow“ entstehen, lassen sich mit ausreichender Erfahrung weitgehend vermeiden.

Abstract

Over the past 25 years carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Most of all younger patients and symptomatic patients with contralateral carotid artery occlusion particularly benefit from CAS. To achieve an optimal result with CAS, patient selection and even more important, knowledge and experience of the interventionist is crucial. The periprocedural complication rate of CAS in large experienced centers is lower (2–3%) than those in randomized trials. Several different devices are now available which allow the procedure to be tailored according to patient anatomy and lesion complexity. Complications like hyperperfusion syndrome and intracerebral bleeding, rupture of side branches of the external or internal carotid artery as well as problems caused by slow flow can be widely avoided by adequate experience.
