Abstract:

Extracranial segmental carotid atherosclerotic disease is the most common type of cerebrovascular disease, and surgical treatment is an important means to reduce disability and mortality of patients. The Neurosurgery Branch of Tianjin Medical Association led the organization of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei experts to develop this consensus by combining the clinical practice in China in recent years and relevant evidence-based medical evidence at home and abroad. The consensus summarizes the screening of the risk group of extracranial segmental carotid atherosclerotic disease, risk factor control, surgical treatment options, and perioperative management, aiming to provide evidence-based normative guidance for the clinical treatment of carotid atherosclerotic disease in China.

Key words: atherosclerosis, carotid stenosis, vertebrobasilar insufficiency, subclavian steal syndrome
