[Surgeries on the carotid arteries].
The article lays emphasis on the main causes of restenosis after endarterectomy from the bifurcation of the carotid artery and shows the methods of its prevention. A new method for endarterectomy of the bifurcation of the carotid artery is suggested, which consists in reimplantation of the internal carotid artery. The authors claim this method to be optimal in combined affection: atherosclerotic constriction of carotid artery bifurcation and pathological tortuosity of the internal carotid artery. The authors possess an experience in 351 operations on the carotid arteries, 177 of them were conducted for loops and kinks of the carotid arteries; 152, for endarterectomy in atherosclerotic affection of the carotid arteries; and 22 for other, less frequently encountered affections of the carotid arteries.
