摘要
A 49-year-old female with a history of systemic hypertension and diabetes mellitus suffered transient right hemiparesis. Carotid angiography with arch-aortography detected severe stenosis of the proximal portion of the left common carotid artery. The left carotid bifurcation was surgically exposed and retrograde catheterization was performed to approach the proximal common carotid artery stenosis. The lesion was dilated with a balloon catheter and successfully stented without complications. The left internal carotid artery was clamped during the procedure to avoid embolism. Retrograde carotid stenting for stenosis of the proximal common carotid artery is a safe and effective alternative to conventional surgery in selected patients.
