title: [Surgery of extracranial carotid artery occlusion (author's transl)].
abstract: A report is given on the results achieved in 197 procedures undertaken for extracranial cerebrovascular insufficiency in 186 patients. Patch angioplasty of the common carotid and internal carotid artery were performed in 162 cases, whilst in 30 patients kinking or looping of the internal carotid artery was corrected by means of arteriopexy, segmental resection of the common carotid artery or by means of reimplantation of the transected internal artery proximal to its origin. Neurological deficits with incomplete recovery were observed in 2 cases (1%). The mortality rate was 3%.
