Aspirin (300 mg daily) was maintained indefinitely.

All the CAS procedures were successful. Only two patients (1.0%), one from each group, presented asymptomatic carotid restenosis (>70%) at the 6- and 12-month follow-ups that required retreatment. As the two groups were divided based on the symptomatic status of the patients, a few baseline variables, carotid related stroke, TIA and mRS, were significantly different between the groups, as expected. The asymptomatic group did not present any carotid-related stroke or TIA, and the mRS grade of this group was significantly lower than that of the symptomatic group (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl2">Table 2</a>). The other baseline variables that varied significantly between the two groups were the prevalence rates of coronary heart disease, contralateral carotid occlusion, and previous unrelated stroke. Compared with the symptomatic group, the asymptomatic group had higher prevalence rates of coronary heart disease (35.6% vs. 16.5%, p = 0.003), previous unrelated stroke (57.5% vs. 24.4%, p<0.001), and contralateral carotid occlusion (23.3% vs. 7.9%, p = 0.004).

The second ischemic stroke occurred 6 hours after the procedure, causing moderate patient disability at the 12-month follow-up (mRS = 3). The third ischemic stroke occurred after carotid angioplasty and was caused by an occlusion of the M1 segment of the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery; the patient presented a moderate neurological deficit (mRS = 3) at the 12-month follow-up. The iPH occurred 2 days after the procedure, and the patient died 10 months later from pneumonia.</p><p id="para110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The 2 deaths observed in the symptomatic group were caused by hospital-acquired pneumonia and acute myelodysplastic syndrome.

All procedures were performed by the interventional neuroradiology staff and fellows at a high-volume tertiary university hospital that receives patient referrals from local and regional health facilities.</p><p id="para150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our results revealed that the overall incidences of ipsilateral stroke (3.0%, 6/200) and MACCE (4.0%, 8/200) at the 30-day follow-up were in accordance with the recommended safety rates for carotid revascularization procedures <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib1">1</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib2">2</a>. Moreover, both the primary and secondary endpoints did not differ significantly between the two groups (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl4">Table 4</a>). Compared with the asymptomatic group, the symptomatic group had a slightly higher rate of MACCE at the 30-day follow-up (4.7% vs. 2.7%, p = 0.71), although this difference was not significant. These MACCE rates were lower than the recommended safety rates for performing CAS in symptomatic (< 6%) and asymptomatic (< 3%) patients <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib1">1-3</a>. The higher MACCE rate in the symptomatic group was expected because compared with CAS for asymptomatic patients, CAS for symptomatic patients has been associated with a twofold higher risk of major complications <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib1">1-3</a>. However, the higher MACCE rates in the symptomatic group were due to 2 deaths that were not related to the CAS procedures. Therefore, excluding the 2 unrelated deaths, the rate of ipsilateral stroke or death between the symptomatic vs. asymptomatic groups was 3.1% vs. 2.7% (p = 1.000), respectively. The secondary endpoints also showed a higher (but not significantly higher) rate of MACCE in the symptomatic group compared with the asymptomatic group (11.2% vs. 4.1%, p = 0.11). This finding was mainly due to the higher rate of death unrelated to cardiovascular or cerebrovascular complications among the symptomatic patients during the follow-up period (8.8% vs. 4.1%, p = 0.26).</p><p id="para160" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An analysis of the baseline variables showed that carotid-related stroke or TIA, as per the definition, were present in the symptomatic group and absent in the asymptomatic group, which explained the higher mRS scores among the symptomatic patients (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl2">Table 2</a>). Moreover, the following variables: previous unrelated stroke, contralateral carotid occlusion, and coronary heart disease had significantly higher prevalence rates in the symptomatic group than in the asymptomatic group. The higher mRS scores of the symptomatic patients suggests that recent ischemic strokes lead to higher functional disability scores than do chronic unrelated strokes or contralateral carotid occlusions (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl2">Table 2</a>). Another interesting finding was that despite the higher frequency of coronary heart disease in the asymptomatic group, no patient of that group suffered a myocardial infarction, whereas in the symptomatic group with a lower frequency of baseline coronary heart disease, 2 deaths from myocardial infarction were observed during the 12-month follow-up.</p><p id="para170" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our results revealed that CAS was safe when indicated as a first-intention revascularization strategy performed during daily clinical practice at a high-volume center outside of a randomized trial. Importantly, previous carotid revascularization randomized trials, which served as the inspiration for the current procedural safety limits, had more restricted eligibility panels than those of our institutional protocol <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib1">1</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib3">3</a> (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl1">Table 1</a>). In other words, we observed similar periprocedural safety outcome rates to those of previous controlled carotid trials in a real clinical care context in which CAS was indicated as the first-intention treatment. The policy of indicating CAS as a first-intention therapy plays a relevant methodological role in the interpretation of the results obtained because important selection biases were avoided <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib8">8</a>. In addition, because patients were evaluated by certified vascular neurologists, the incidence of stroke observed in this study was likely not influenced by clinical assessment bias as reported in other surgical studies <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib9">9</a>.</p><p id="para180" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The good results obtained in this study may be explained by a sum of the following factors: the use of embolic protection devices <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib10">10</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib11">11</a>, the use of a double antiplatelet regimen <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib1">1-3</a>, and the high-volume center setting <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib12">12</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib13">13</a>. Our findings underscore the value of performing a high volume of CAS procedures and a more experienced neurointerventional team on the outcomes obtained. Moreover, we stress the importance of a CAS reference center for achieving good outcomes as opposed to the common Brazilian reality of care, in which CAS procedures are performed at multiple distantly arranged low-volume hospitals.</p><p id="para190" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The major limitations of the study are the small sample size, the non-randomized and retrospective design, and the lack of clinical data on patients who were clinically managed and did not undergo CAS.</p><p id="para200" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this retrospective study conducted at a high-volume Brazilian interventional neuroradiology center, CAS was similarly safe and effective when performed as a first-intention treatment in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.
