A surgical operation called carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is performed to clear plaque accumulation in the neck's carotid arteries. The brain receives blood from these arteries, and the risk of stroke increases when these arteries constrict due to plaque (carotid artery disease).

To restore normal blood flow, a vascular surgeon makes an incision in the neck, opens the artery, removes the plaque, and then closes the artery. In order to avoid stroke, CEA is frequently advised for individuals with moderate to severe arterial blockage of 50 % or more.

The surgical removal of plaque accumulation from the carotid artery in the neck, which provides blood to the brain, is known as carotid endarterectomy. It is mostly done to avoid stroke in patients who have severe carotid artery constriction (stenosis), which is typically brought on by atherosclerosis. The objectives are to restore normal blood flow to the brain and lower the risk of subsequent strokes, particularly for patients who have already suffered symptoms such as a small stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).

Sudden weakness, numbness, slurred speech, changes in vision, or loss of coordination may indicate a stroke, so you should see a professional. A routine checkup might identify carotid artery disease even if you don't have any symptoms. You can contact skilled vascular surgeons through MediGence for timely evaluation and individualised treatment planning.

A physical examination and imaging tests, such as ultrasound, CT angiography, or MR angiography, are part of the preparation process to determine the extent of artery narrowing. Your doctor will review your prescriptions, medical history, and any risk factors. You will typically need to fast for six to eight hours before surgery.

Incision: A little incision is made over the afflicted artery on the side of the neck.
Plaque Removal: After opening the artery, the surgeon carefully eliminates the plaque, causing it to narrow.
Repair: After that, the artery is sealed, occasionally with a patch to make it wider.
Closure: A sterile bandage is applied over the wound after it has been stitched.

The process usually takes one and a half to two hours. Most patients remain in the hospital for observation and recovery for one to two days.

Heart Attack
Stroke
Blood accumulating in the tissue surrounding the wound site, resulting in edema
Nerve issues affecting specific eye, nose, tongue, or ear functions
Intracerebral haemorrhage can occur when blood flows into the brain.
Seizures

For patients with moderate to severe carotid artery stenosis, carotid endarterectomy dramatically lowers their risk of stroke. Reestablishing proper blood flow helps preserve healthy brain function and is especially beneficial for symptomatic individuals. The effects are frequently long-lasting, particularly when paired with dietary adjustments and medical care.

Blood pressure, neurological symptoms, and wound healing are all tracked in patients. Although complete healing can take several weeks, most people can return to modest activities in a week. At first, it is essential to avoid physically demanding tasks.

When carried out by skilled surgeons, carotid endarterectomy has a success rate of over 90% in avoiding strokes.
