Abstract:
PURPOSE:This study was performed to determine whether early duplex findings predicted restenosis after carotid endarterectomy. METHODS:One hundred ninety-two symptomatic patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy were studied with color duplex imaging at 1 day and 1 week after surgery to identify minor residual disease (causing < 50% stenosis), arterial kinking, and suture stricture, and to measure the external and luminal diameters of the carotid bulb and distal internal carotid artery. Patients were then observed prospectively with duplex surveillance for a median of 24 months to identify > 50% restenosis. RESULTS:Twenty-five stenoses > 50% of the operated carotid artery (13%) were identified, four at 1 day (residual) and 21 at a median follow-up of 6 months (restenosis). On multiple logistic regression analysis, > 50% restenosis was found to be associated with minor day-1 residual stenosis (p = 0.01) and with small luminal diameter of the distal internal carotid artery (p = 0.03) as measured 1 week after carotid endarterectomy. Life table analysis showed restenosis at 24 months to be more common for patients with below-median than patients with above-median carotid bulb external diameter (18% vs 5%, respectively; p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Duplex scanning within a week of carotid endarterectomy identifies > 50% residual stenosis, in addition to minor residual 25% to 50% stenosis and small carotid dimensions, which are good predictors of > 50% restenosis at 6 months.
