Timing of carotid endarterectomy after stroke.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:The objective of this study was to determine the clinical features, angiographic findings, and response to treatment with thrombolytic therapy in patients with ischemic stroke caused by acute occlusion of the distal internal carotid artery. METHODS:This is a retrospective case series from a pros...
