Abstract

Severe stenosis of both the internal carotid and the innominate arteries is a rare condition. Hybrid procedures combining carotid endarterectomy and retrograde endovascular innominate angioplasty have been introduced to reduce the complications of open surgery. The recently reported good results of carotid angioplasty and stenting have encouraged us to perform simultaneous transcervical angioplasties and stenting of both arteries in a symptomatic 64-year-old woman. The procedure was successful and without complications and there have been no symptoms or restenosis in the 18-month follow-up period. Carrying out additional procedures of this will be necessary to reach wider conclusions.
