Overview
For people with a greater than 70% stenosis within the carotid artery, removal of atherosclerotic plaque by surgery, specifically a carotid endarterectomy, may be recommended.
Surgery
Surgical management of patients with TIA may include the following:
Mechanical thrombectomy
There is limited evidence to support the use of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with minor or transient ischemic stroke. Large vessel occlusion is a poor predictor of neurological disability in patients having transient ischemic attack. According to AHA/ASA guidelines, it is postulated that patients with NIHSS score <6 or having evidence of large vessel occlusion may benefit from early endovascular therapy.[1][2][3][4]
Carotid Endartectomy
Carotid endartectomy may be performed within 2 weeks of cerebral or retinal TIA in those with TIA attributed to a high-grade internal carotid artery stenosis:[5][6][4]
| Degree of carotid artery stenosis | Carotid endartectomy |
|---|---|
| 70-99% internal carotid artery stenosis | Recommended |
| 50-69% stenosis | Recommended only in specific situation† |
| <50% stenosis | Not recommended |
Extracranial-Intracranial Bypass
Extracranial-intracranial bypass is not recommended in patients with TIA.[5]
†Recommended only in certain patients and at centres with perioperative complication rate of <6%
