Asymptomatic carotid bruit and stenosis. A prospective follow-up study.

摘要: • We observed 70 patients with asymptomatic carotid bruits and without stenoses for cerebral myocardial ischemic events. Four developed transient attacks (TIAs) subsequent infarctions; all of the TIAs occurred distal to vessels greater than or equal 50% stenoses. Three infarctions occurred, but only one was a vessel stenosis 50%. Six predominantly in previous infarctions, congestive heart failure, left ventricular hypertrophy. Our results confirm reports that an is more often complicated by TIA unheralded infarction. Cerebral do occur are marginally related bifurcation lesion. In bruit stenosis, frequently commonly cause death infarctions.
