The Carotid and Supra-Aortic Trunks

Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting (CAS) is a new approach to treat a carotid stenosis. This new book provides interventional cardiologists, both as beginners or fully experienced, with a reference on all aspects of angioplasty and stenting of the carotid and supra-aortic trunks.Focusing on both the entire range of angioplasty and stenting treatment options for the surgeon treating patients on the operating table, and the range of radiological techniques used for the cardiologist to diagnose carotid artery stenosis (CAS) and associated conditions, this important book describes the best indications, the different techniques, the results, and also the limitations of CAS based on randomized studies and particularly the last published data (CREST study).Suitable for both novice and experienced interventionalists, it also addresses diagnosis of a carotid stenosis and complications from CAS and how to manage them.

Dr. Michel Henry practices interventional cardiology at the Cabinet de Cardiologie in Nancy, France.

Dr. Edward B. Diethrich, an internationally renowned cardiovascular surgeon who has practiced for more than 40 years, is regarded as one of the world's pioneers in heart disease diagnosis and innovative cardiovascular and endovascular treatments. Dr. Diethrich is the Medical Director and Chief of Cardiovascular Surgery at the Arizona Heart Hospital, where he performs state-of-the-art endovascular procedures using the latest devices, many of which he helped design and test in clinical trials.

Dr. Antonios Polydorou is chief of cardiology at the Evagelismos General Hospital, Athens. Dr. Polydorou performed the first successful treatment of a renal artery aneurysm (RAA) in October 2007.
