Abstract

Complications associated with carotid artery stenting can occur during or following the procedure, which can be divided into early post-procedural and late post-procedural complications. After the completion of a successful CAS procedure, management and monitoring is targeted toward the cardiovascular hemodynamic status and neurological status of the patients, to promptly identify early complications.
