Abstract
To assess carotid endarterectomy’s effectiveness, 72 patients with ischemic stroke and hemodynamically significant stenosis of the head’s main arteries were examined. In 57 patients, revascularizing operations were performed on the head’s main arteries at various periods of ischemic stroke; 15 patients received only conservative therapy. It has been shown that carotid endarterectomy has a positive effect on cognitive functions and reduces the neurological deficit in patients operated earlier after a stroke than patients who underwent surgical treatment in the late recovery period of stroke.
