DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2016.10.046
Abstract: BACKGROUND Several carotid endarterectomy techniques have been described, including conventional carotid endarterectomy (CCEA) performed with patch repair and eversion carotid endarterectomy (ECEA) performed with transection of the internal carotid artery. We describe our simplified technique… read more here.
