[The flowmetric assessment of the adequacy of carotid endarterectomy].
The authors made an analysis of ultrasonic flowmetry in 36 operations of carotid endarterectomy in 22 patients with stenosis of brachiocephalic arteries. After removal of atherosclerotic plaques the volumetric blood flow in carotid arteries increased from 65-260 ml/min up to 210-400 ml/min. No substantial difference was noted between the increase of blood flow after classical endarterectomy and after the formation of a new carotid bifurcation. Flowmetry allows the estimation of adequacy of vascular reconstruction and the choice of correct management of the patients at the postoperative period.
