Abstract
The paper presents a case report of left common carotid artery kinking treated by stenting in a patient with aortoarteritis. The kink had developed 10 months after performance of carotid-subclavian anastomosis for occlusion of left subclavian artery and steal syndrome. The stenting procedure of left common carotid artery is described. Follow-up for 42 months and control angiography 6 months after stent implantation demonstrated good outcome and regression of neurological symptoms. Special features of stenting procedure in coiled artery with unaltered walls are analysed. The authors mention that carotid stenting in this patient was the most appropriate method of surgical treatment. It is the first description of stent use for carotid artery kinking correction.
