Summary

During a seven-year period (2002–2008), 830 patients underwent internal carotid surgery in the Plzeň Surgical Clinic. The mean age of the patients was 68 y.o.a. (range 48–86 years). A total of 916 internal carotid procedures were performed, the male/female ratio was 667/249. 639 procedures were performed for asymptomatic and 277 for symptomatic conditions. 677 patients suffered from unilateral carotid disorders and 153 subjects from bilateral carotid disorders. All the procedures were performed under locoregional anesthesia. The 30-day mortality rate was 1% (9 subjects) of all the procedures.

Key words:
internal carotid artery – endarterectomy – cerebral ischemia stroke
