title: A technique for intraoperative arteriography following carotid endarterectomy.
abstract: This technique provides a simple and reliable means of obtaining an operative arteriogram after carotid endarterectomy. Detection of unsuspected abnormalities before the wound is closed allows the surgeon to correct any abnormalities immediately with hopes of decreasing the incidence of postoperative neurological deficits.
