Deals with the use of a catheter threaded into the carotid artery to prevent stroke or relieve pre-stroke symptoms, followed by the placement of a stent. This book also covers intracranial as well as extracranial procedures.

Over the past three decades, carotid artery stenting has evolved to become a promising and viable alternative to carotid endarterectomy, especially for patients deemed to have high surgical risks. In Carotid Artery Stenting: The Basics, Jacqueline Saw and a panel of international experts on carotid artery stenting discuss in depth the details of all contemporary aspects of carotid stenting, while reviewing supporting studies, guidelines, technical perspectives, and peri-procedural management. This textbook serves as a learning resource on the multifaceted management of patients with carotid artery stenosis, with the key focus on extracranial carotid artery stenting. Additional sections detail the specifics of setting up and maintaining a laboratory and discuss the preparation of the carotid artery stenting procedure from both the patient and operator’s perspective. Authoritative and highly practical, Carotid Artery Stenting: The Basics is an accessible guide and valuable resource for today’s cardiologists, radiologists, and vascular surgeons.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art left atrial appendage (LAA) closure, covering epidemiology of atrial fibrillation and stroke, LAA anatomy, surgical approaches, imaging for LAA closure, LAA closure procedure, and post-procedural management. LAA closure is a rapidly emerging field in stroke prevention for patients with atrial fibrillation. Several percutaneous and surgical devices are now available in many countries, including WATCHMAN, Amplatzer Cardiac Plug and Amulet, and LARIAT devices, and many more are in clinical development and are being evaluated in research trials. As LAA closure is a technically challenging procedure, detailed knowledge of the rationale, anatomy, and technical approach of this modality guides clinicians in patient selection and facilitates procedural success. Left Atrial Appendage Closure is a valuable resource for interventional cardiologists, electrophysiologists, echocardiographers, radiographers, fellows, and residents in guiding the management of patients prior to, during, and following LAA closure. .

Since the first carotid angioplasty that was performed in 1980, this technique has undergone tremendous modifications and improvements. Stents for the carotid artery were utilized in the early 1990s, and emboli protection devices were introduced about 2000. Advances in equipment (guidewires, catheters, balloons, stents, and emboli p- tection devices) have improved the technical success and safety of carotid stenting. With the recent SAPPHIRE publication revealing non-inferiority of carotid stenting compared with carotid endarterectomy for high-risk surgical patients, this percutaneous procedure is now considered a viable alternative to endarterectomy for these patients. In fact, the FDA has approved carotid stenting for high-risk patients using the AccuLink stent and AccuNet device (Guidant Corporation, Santa Clara, CA) in August 2004, and the TM TM Xact and EmboShield system (Abbott Vascular Devices, Redwood City, CA) in September 2005. Increasing numbers of carotid stenting are being performed around the world, and established interventionalists and trainees alike are seeking to be instructed in performing this meticulous procedure. Unfortunately, there are insufficient well-established peri- eral vascular training programs to meet this increasing demand. Only a small proportion of current trainees are enrolled in fellowship programs with dedicated carotid interv- tional training that perform high-volume extracranial carotid stenting; even fewer are enrolled in programs that also partake in intracranial and acute stroke interventions. In North America, this shortage of dedicated training programs leaves interested interv- tionalists pursuing carotid stent training through short educational courses, and often haphazard and limited hands-on experience in other institutions.
