title: [Lateralization of lesions in the carotid bed in patients with sudden cerebrovascular stroke].
abstract: Statistical significance of different factors in laterality of lesions in the carotid bed was studied on a group of 170 patients indicated to ultrasound examination. These were factors contained in the patients' history, i.e. ischemic heart disease, arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, age and sex of patients as well as results obtained from auxiliary examinations--Doppler sonography, KAG, EEG and CT of the brain. A marked statistical predominance of lesions in the left-side carotid bed was found, which was, however, true only for men, especially those after a completed stroke. The left-sided bed is, moreover, involved earlier, higher incidence of ischemic heart disease was also observed in left-sided lesions as well as more severe findings obtained from Doppler sonography, angiography, EEG and CT of the brain.
