摘要

Carotid artery stenting performed with distal embolic protection devices continues to show elevated rates of periprocedural stroke, in particular with high-risk groups. This article discusses the factors associated with protection devices that may contribute to this complication, performs a literature review to assess outcomes of carotid stenting with proximal occlusion devices, and assesses the role of proximal occlusion devices in the management of patients with carotid artery stenosis.
