Carotid stenosis caused by atherosclerosis is a significant risk factor for ischemic stroke, accounting for up to 15% of all strokes and transient ischemic attacks. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have demonstrated the benefits of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in reducing stroke risk in patients with severe symptomatic carotid stenosis. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has been developed as an alternative to CEA, offering several potential advantages, such as avoiding local surgical complications. However, unlike CEA, CAS has not been compared to medical therapy in RCTs for symptomatic carotid stenosis.
