As the popularity of Carotid Artery Stenting (CAS) grows, so too does the demand in knowledge and guidance for this technically challenging and high risk procedure. The book aids optimal outcomes during early experiences with CAS by helping to avoid many common pitfalls. The text runs through common themes of CAS such as carotid anatomy variations, material selection, imaging during CAS, pharamacological support regimes and post procedural care serving to minimise the potential risk of error and further complications. This is an essential handbook for physicians of all backgrounds, particularly Vascular Radiologists, Neurointerventionists, Vascular Surgeons, Interventional Cardiologists, and Neurologists/Stroke Physicians. This book is written by a number of authors from around the globe, and edited by Gerry Stansby and Sumaira Macdonald, two experts in the field of vascular radiology and surgery. Sumaira Macdonald is also responsible for the carotid artery stenting program in Newcastle making this book a reliable source of information and guidance in the domain of CAS.

The contribution of coronary stents in the prevention and treatment of complications of angioplasty in preventing restenosis is no longer contested. However, like any therapeutic progress, this technique has its limitations by generating a neo-pathology that includes stent restenosis and stent thrombosis with its dreaded fatal events are myocardial infarctions and sudden death. (6 Stopping antiplatelet therapy is the main risk of stent thrombosis DES as stent BMS. This risk raises the question of antithrombotic treatment alternative when the antiplatelet therapy should be stopped for surgery.The aim of this retrospective clinical study is to evaluate the prevalence (and incidence), predictors and impact of thrombosis bare stents (BMS) in non-diabetic patients.We believe that the incidence of stent thrombosis, as reported in prospective randomized trials or registries, is undervalued by at least 50%, recurrent thrombosis in the same patient and thrombosis of different stents procedure index, are generally not reported.Since November 2003, coated stents (DES) have been implanted in Belgium, especially in diabetic patients, these stents are associated with a higher rate of late thrombosis.Our clinical research work consists of a detailed analysis of the procedural data and long term follow up of patients treated in place bare metal stents (BMS) .So we analyzed 743 consecutive procedures from January l st, 2002 - December 2003 (before the DES era). During follow-up we evaluated the additional revascularization procedures and thrombosis of stents (classified as certain, probable and possible) .We intend to describe the incidence and impact of thrombosis bare stents, and a multivariate analysis to determine predictors. We also compare our results with those of patients (es) treated (es) by introduction of coated stents (DES) in the same period in the same hospital and the current literature L'apport des stents coronaires dans la prévention et le traitement des complications de l'angioplastie et dans la prévention des resténoses n'est plus contesté.Néanmoins, comme tout progrès thérapeutique, cette technique a ses limites en engendrant une néo-pathologie qui inclut la resténose intrastent et la thrombose de stent dont ses manifestations fatales redoutées sont l'infarctus myocardiques et la mort subites. (6)L'arrêt du traitement antiagrégant représente le principal risque de thrombose de stent actif comme de stent nu. Ce risque soulève la question du traitement antithrombotique de substitution lorsque le traitement antiagrégant doit être arrêté pour une chirurgie.Le but de cette recherche clinique rétrospective est d'évaluer la prévalence (et l'incidence), les facteurs prédictifs et l'impact des thromboses des stents nus (BMS) chez les patients non diabétiques.Nous pensons que l'incidence des thromboses de stents, telle que rapportée dans les études randomisées prospectives ou les registres, est sous-évaluée d'au moins 50%: les thromboses récidivantes chez le même patient et les thromboses de stents différents de la procédure index, ne sont généralement pas rapportées.Depuis novembre 2003, des stents enrobés (DES) sont implantés en Belgique, en particulier chez les patients diabétiques, ces stents sont associées à un taux plus élevé de thromboses tardives.Notre travail de recherche clinique consiste en une analyse en détail des données procédurales et de suivi à long terme des patients traités par mise en place de stents nus (BMS). Ainsi nous avons analysé 743 procédures consécutives du 01 janvier 2002 au 31 décembre 2003 (la majorité avant l'ère de DES en Belgique). Durant le suivi nous avons évalué les procédures de revascularisation supplémentaires et les thromboses de stents (classées en certaines, probables et possibles).Nous comptons décrire l'incidence et l'impact des thromboses des stents nus, et par une analyse multi-variée déterminer les facteurs prédictifs. Nous comparerons également nos résultats à ceux de patients(es) traités(es) par une mise en place de stents enrobés (DES) à la même période au sein du même hôpital et à la littérature actuelle.

This work illustrates the various techniques and materials which can be used in case of atherosclerosis. This hardly spread disease can be treated by different manners: pharmacological treatment, bypass, or coronary angioplasty. The coronary angioplasty is a not surgical intervention which is going to dilate an artery with a shrunk diameter and so to allow a better oxygenation. This dilatation is made by a catheter provided with an inflatable balloon. A stent can than be set up. It is a small metallic device which is going to maintain the artery opened. There are various types of stents which varies according to their diameter, their length, their composition, the fact that they are coated with an elution drug or not, … These materials do not stop evolving Ce travail reprend les différentes techniques et matériaux qui peuvent être utilisés en cas d’athérosclérose. Cette maladie assez repandue, peut être soignée de manières différentes : traitement pharmacologique, le pontage, l’angioplastie coronaire. L’angioplastie coronaire est une intervention non chirurgicale qui va dilater une artère dont le diamètre est rétréci et ainsi permettre une meilleure oxygénation. Cette dilatation va se faire au moyen d’un cathéter muni d’un ballon gonflable. Un stent pourra ensuite être mis en place. C’est un petit dispositif métallique qui va permettre de maintenir l’artère ouverte. Il existe différents types de stents qui varient selon leur diamètre, leur longueur, leur composition, le fait qu’ils soient à élution médicamenteuses ou pas … Ces matériaux ne cessent d’évoluer
