A member asked:
Bilateral carotid stenosis-left greater 70 percent--right greater 50 percent no hz of other medical condition-type treatment???????
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Surgery: High grade carotid lesions are best treated by surgery. Not angioplasy, stunting or drugs. The main problem is there are few surgeons that are skilled enough to do the procedure at a low risk. Centers that do lots of this kind of work are in every major city. It's not a small hospital deal.
