Fig. 8.6 A middle-aged patient presented with a history of trauma and CT evaluation as part of the trauma protocol demonstrated a right-sided hemothorax related to a pseudoaneurysm of the right subclavian artery. (a) Catheter angiography of the right subclavian artery re-demonstrated the pseudoaneurysm (black arrow) arising distal to the origin of the right vertebral artery with a relatively wide neck. Based on the morphology of the aneurysm, endovascular treatment using a stent graft was considered.

right vertebral artery to plan for excluding that segment of

the subclavian artery. (c) Contralateral vertebral arteriog-

raphy with balloon ination in situ demonstrated good

collateral ow and intracranial perfusion with no associ-

purpose of obtaining diagnostic angiograms will be limited, this technique might nd favor in the future as experience accumulates with techniques for access and closure.

Intravascular ultrasound has been used predominantly in the coronary and peripheral vasculature for evaluation of atherosclerotic plaque morphology as well as for assessing successful

revascularization with stents. There are increasing reports of the use of this technology for the assessment of steno-occlusive disease in the periprocedural period for the placement of stents during endovascular revascularization [17]. This may be potentially useful in patients with severe anaphylaxis to contrast and /or renal dysfunction.

Fig. 8.7 A young patient presented with intractable tinnitus following trauma to the neck. (a) Right vertebral arteriography demonstrates a high ow arteriovenous shunt from the V2 segment with rapid visualization of multiple veins within the peri-vertebral venous plexus. Due to the extremely high ow nature of the shunt, an exact determination of the site of stulation could not be determined

Conclusion

Invasive catheter angiography of the carotid and vertebral arteries has a role in the evaluation of certain pathological vascular conditions of the head and neck as outlined above. Advancements in noninvasive vascular imaging have led to a decreased need for catheter arteriography in general. However, in selected clinical settings, the technique may prove useful in the management of patients and should be utilized prudently when other means of diagnosis are inconclusive. Careful attention to technique can minimize the risks associated with this procedure. A detailed understanding of the anatomy of the extracranial carotid and vertebral arteries will aid in interpreting the angiographic images and help in planning a therapeutic intervention by surgical or endovascular means.

blocks the cyclooxygenase (COX) activity of prostaglandin H synthase 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2). COX-1 inhibition permanently alters the thromboxane A2-dependent platelet functions (platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction). Aspirin is absorbed rapidly and reaches its peak plasma level within 30–40 min. Enteric coated aspirin absorption is slower, but it reduces the gastrointestinal side effects. Dipyridamole and cilostazol are phosphodiesterase inhibitors. They inhibit adenosine reuptake and increase cAMP and gAMP levels which increases platelet survival and causes vasodilation. Clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor inhibit the adenosine-dependent platelet aggregation by blocking the P2Y12 receptors. Clopidogrel and prasugrel are prodrugs and need to be activated by cytochrome P-450 enzymes. Conversely, ticagrelor does not need activation and acts rapidly.

The North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET), European Carotid Surgery Trial (ECST), and the Veterans Affairs (VA) carotid stenosis studies were the rst-generation studies that evaluated surgical therapy in carotid stenosis. They examined the efcacy of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) compared to medical therapy in symptomatic carotid stenosis of different degrees. CEA resulted in 65% and 45% relative risk reduction of recurrent stroke in patients with ≥70% stenosis in the NASCET and ECST trials, respectively [2,

3]. In NASCET, an aspirin dose of 1300mg was

recommended. NASCET was largely conducted in the pre-statin area, and only about 15% of patients received lipid-lowering medications [2]. There was no formal hypertension management protocol in NASCET.

An alternative regimen to aspirin monotherapy is dual antiplatelet therapy. In the CHANCE trial, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and clopidogrel for 21days resulted in 32% relative risk reduction of ischemic stroke recurrence at 90 days from the index TIA or minor ischemic stroke (NIHSS≤ 5) compared to aspirin monotherapy [4]. However, this trial enrolled mostly Asian patients with presumed more intracranial atherosclerosis. In the ESPS-2

and ESPRIT trials, aspirin and extended-release dipyridamole (ASA-ERDP) was superior to aspirin alone in preventing major vascular events [5, 6]. In 2008, the PRoFESS trial showed that ASA-ERDP was not superior to clopidogrel but resulted in more adverse reactions (mostly headache) [7]. The Clopidogrel and Aspirin for Reduction of Emboli in Symptomatic Carotid Stenosis (CARESS) study randomized patients with ≥50% carotid stenosis and transcranial Doppler (TCD) microembolic signals to aspirin or clopidogrel and aspirin [8]. DAPT was superior to monotherapy in reducing TCD microembolic signals 2 and 7days after randomization. During the rst 7days after randomization, there were no recurrent strokes and four TIAs in the DAPT group compared to four recurrent strokes and seven TIAs in the group that received aspirin alone.

The effect of antiplatelet therapy on specic stroke subtypes was not evaluated in any of the studies mentioned above until the recent SOCRATES trial. SOCRATES is a randomized control trial that evaluated ticagrelor vs aspirin for secondary stroke prevention of noncardioembolic TIA or mild ischemic stroke (NIHSS≤5). Ticagrelor was not superior to aspirin in preventing stroke, MI, or death in the overall trial [9]. But, a subgroup analysis of patients with symptomatic atherosclerotic disease was in favor of ticagrelor over aspirin [10]. At 90days, ipsilateral stroke, myocardial infarction, or death occurred in 6.7% in the ticagrelor group compared to 9.6% in the aspirin group. There was a 32% reduction in this endpoint with ticagrelor (hazard ratio 0.68 [95% CI 0.53–0.88]; p=0.003).

The optimal dose of aspirin prior to and following CEA has also been studied. The Aspirin and Carotid Endarterectomy (ACE) trial evaluated four doses of ASA (81, 325, 650, and 1300mg) prior to and for 90 days following CEA. The lower doses (81 and 325mg) were superior in preventing recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction, or vascular death compared to the higher doses [11]. As a result, current guidelines recommend 81–325mg of aspirin in patients undergoing CEA [12].

Statins forCarotid Disease

The Stroke Prevention by Aggressive Reduction in Cholesterol Levels (SPARCL) trial is the largest trial to date that has examined the impact of statins on stroke risk [13]. The trial enrolled patients with stroke or TIA within the previous 6months and with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels of 100–190mg per deciliter and with no known coronary heart disease. Subjects were assigned to treatment with 80mg of atorvastatin per day or placebo. The primary endpoint was a rst nonfatal or fatal stroke. Over follow-up of almost 5years, 11.2% of the atorvastatin group and 13.1% of the placebo group suffered a stroke (5-year absolute reduction in risk, 2.2%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.84; 95% condence interval, 0.71–0.99; P= 0.03; unadjusted P= 0.05). In a subgroup analysis, the effect was found to be similar among all stroke subtypes [14]. While the overall morality was similar between groups, the atorvastatin group did experience a small increase in the incidence of hemorrhagic stroke compared to placebo. A secondary analysis, looking specically at patients with carotid stenosis, found that when compared with placebo, treatment with atorvastatin was associated with a 33% reduction in the risk of any stroke (hazard ratio [HR] 0.67, 95% condence interval [CI] 0.47, 0.94; P=0.02) and a 43% reduction in risk of major coronary events (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.32, 1.00; P=0.05). Carotid revascularization was reduced by 56% (HR

0.44, 95% CI 0.24, 0.79; P=0.006) in the atorvastatin treatment group [15].

Prior treatment with statins may also be benecial for patients with carotid stenosis. A retrospective analysis found that among acute symptomatic carotid stenosis patients, nonprocedural 7-day stroke risk was 3.8% (CI, 1.2–9.7%) with statin treatment at TIA onset, compared with 13.2% (CI, 8.5–19.8%) in those not statin pretreated (P = 0.01; 90-day risks 8.9% versus

20.8% [P=0.01]). Statin pretreatment was associated with reduced stroke risk in patients with carotid stenosis (odds ratio for 90-day stroke,

0.37; CI, 0.17–0.82) but not in patients without stenosis (odds ratio, 1.3; CI, 0.8–2.24; P for interaction, 0.008). This association remained after adjustment for multiple variables [16].

A 2004 systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials, testing statin drugs, found that each 10% reduction in LDL was estimated to reduce the risk of all strokes by 15.6% (95% CI,

6.7–23.6) and carotid intima media thickness (IMT) by 0.73% per year (95% CI, 0.27–1.19). Of note, this analysis did not nd an association between statin use and intracerebral hemorrhage [

17].

A recent multicenter prospective study of patients with large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) found that statin pretreatment was associated with greater neurologic improvement during hospitalization and higher rates of favorable outcomes (FO) (mRS 0–1) in unmatched and matched (odds ratio for FO: 2.44; 95% condence interval [CI]: 1.07–5.53) analyses. It was also related to lower risk of 1-month mortality and stroke recurrence in unmatched and matched analyses (hazard ratio for recurrent stroke: 0.11, 95% CI: 0.02–0.46; hazard ratio for death: 0.24, 95% CI: 0.08–0.75) [

18].

For patients undergoing interventions, prior treatment with statins is also desirable. A 2006 retrospective study examined the effect of statin pretreatment on outcomes in carotid artery stenting (CAS) and found the incidence of cardiovascular events was signicantly different between patients with statin pretreatment (4%) and those without pretreatment (15%) (P<0.05). The difference remained after adjustment for age, sex, degree of carotid stenosis, and the use of cerebral protection devices [19].

The multicenter EPOCH-CAS study examined patients with carotid artery stenosis (symptomatic ≥50%, asymptomatic ≥80%) and a high risk of CEA but without previous statin treatment. Patients were divided into two groups by LDL levels. Patients with LDL ≥120mg/dl received pitavastatin at 4 mg/day. Patients, with LDL <120 mg/ dl, did not receive treatment. After 4 weeks, both groups underwent CAS.New ipsilateral ischemic lesions were identied in 25.8% in the pretreatment group and 53.3% among controls (P=0.028) [20]. The Rosuvastatin Pretreatment to Reduce Embolization during Carotid Artery Stenting trial is currently enrolling and will be the largest randomized trial to examine the effect of statin pretreatment on embolization during CAS [21].

The LIPID trial showed that pravastatin use accompanied by low-fat diet, even among patients with average or below average cholesterol levels, resulted in signicant reduction in carotid wall thickness when compared to placebo and low-fat diet [22]. Another study demonstrated that attenuation of carotid plaque during statin use was associated with higher high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels [23].

For patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis, a 4.5-year prospective population-based study in Denmark found that early risk of recurrent stroke in patients with symptomatic signicant carotid stenosis is dramatically reduced after urgent aggressive best medical therapy, including statin treatment, in specialized stroke clinics. The rate of early recurrence of neurological symptoms from index event to CEA in symptomatic patients was

1.6% (95% CI 0.5–4%) after best medical therapy and 25% in the 90days prior to referral to a stroke clinic (95% CI 20–30%, p<0.00001) [24].

Insights regarding the benets of aggressive medical therapy can also be obtained from studies of intracranial stenosis. An analysis comparing two of the largest trials involving the medical management of intracranial disease (SAMMPRIS and WASID) showed that the better outcomes demonstrated in the medical arm of SAMMPRIS compared to those in WASID were due in large part to the aggressive medical management, including statin use, in SAMMPRIS [25].

A systematic review of the effect of statin use on carotid plaque echogenicity found that statin use was associated with a favorable increase of carotid plaque echogenicity. The effect appears dependent on treatment duration and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) change from baseline and independent of changes in LDL and HDL [26].

Blood Pressure Medications andCarotid Disease

There are currently limited data regarding the management of blood pressure in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Studies have generally

used <140/90 as a target except in the setting of acute ischemic stroke after which permissive hypertension is allowed for 24–48h.

The Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial (ACST) enrolled patients as intensive medical management became more popular. The later years of these trials, when more patients were receiving intensive medical therapy, resulted in improved outcomes. Specically, in the rst 5years of the ACST, medically treated patients had a 1.1% annual risk of stroke. In the nal 5years of the ACST, medically treated patients had a 0.7% risk of stroke per year. The decline in stroke rates from 1995 to 2010 corresponded with increased utilization of statins and antihypertensive medications. As an example, fewer than 10% of patients randomized to medical therapy alone were on lipid-lowering treatment in the rst year of the study, and this increased to 82% in the later years of ACST.In addition, diastolic blood pressure improved from 84mmHg in 1995 to 77.5mmHg in 2005 [27].

A 2015 study showed that patients whose blood pressure paradoxically increased during sleep (reverse dipper pattern) may be a risk factor for carotid atherosclerosis and play a crucial role in the early formation of carotid plaque [28].

Asymptomatic Carotid Emboli Study (ACES) is a prospective observational study of 477 patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis [29]. Baseline mean BP weakly predicted any stroke or CVD death (P=0.03). On multivariate analysis, antiplatelets (P=0.001) and lower mean blood pressure (P = 0.002) were independent predictors of reduced risk of ipsilateral stroke and transient ischemic attack. Antiplatelets (P<0.0001) and antihypertensives (P<0.0001) were independent predictors of a lower risk of any stroke or cardiovascular death. Antihypertensives predicted a lower risk of ipsilateral stroke or TIA (P=0.01) and any stroke or CVD death (P <0.0001). BP was strongly associated with ipsilateral stroke or TIA and any stroke or CVD death (all P<0.0001). The association of antihypertensives with ipsilateral stroke or TIA was largely mediated via BP control.

In 2003, the Carotid Endarterectomy Trialists’ Collaboration compared the relationship between blood pressure (systolic and diastolic blood pressures, pulse pressure) and stroke risk in TIA and stroke patients with documented stenosis of at least one carotid artery (ECST and NASCET) with that in TIA and stroke patients with a low prevalence of carotid disease [United Kingdom Transient Ischemic Attack (UK-TIA) Aspirin Trial]. In ECST and NASCET, investigators also determined the relationship between blood pressure and stroke risk in patients with unilateral carotid occlusion and patients with bilateral ≥70% carotid stenosis. They found that stroke risk on medical treatment increased with blood pressure in ECST and NASCET, but the relationships were less steep than in the UK-TIA trial. The relationship between blood pressure and stroke risk was not affected by the presence of a unilateral carotid occlusion but was signicantly affected by the presence of bilateral carotid stenosis ≥70% (interaction: systolic blood pressure, P = 0.002; diastolic blood pressure, P =0.03; pulse pressure, P = 0.003) [30]. In this group, the relationship was inverted because of the high stroke risks at lower blood pressures. This interaction was not present after carotid endarterectomy and was not present for the risk of myocardial infarction.

Optimal treatment of hypertension may have benets beyond the carotid artery stenosis. Blood pressure control is especially important in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis as about 50% of strokes in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis are due to small vessel disease and cardioembolism rather than the stenotic carotid artery [31].

trials have been important in demonstrating the value of multimodal therapy. SAMMPRIS and VISSIT trials evaluated the role of stenting of severe intracranial stenosis compared to aggressive medical therapy [32, 33]. In SAMMPRIS, 12% of the aggressive medical management (AMM) group developed a primary outcome (ipsilateral stroke or death) compared to 22% in the stenting group (the rates were 15% in AMM and 36% in the stenting groups in VISSIT). AMM consisted of dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin 325mg daily and clopidogrel 75mg daily for 90 days followed by aspirin monotherapy indenitely. Treatment also included aggressive antihypertensive regimen with a goal systolic blood pressure <140 mmHg (≤130 mmHg in diabetics), lipid lowering to a goal LDL <70mg/ dl, smoking cessation, weight loss, and exercise through a specic lifestyle modication program (INTERVENT coaching). The benets of aggressive medical therapy were seen with the superior outcomes with medical therapy compared to intracranial stenting.

evaluated the risk of ipsilateral ischemic stroke in medically treated patients with 50–99% asymptomatic carotid stenosis. The annual stroke risk was 0.34–0.5% [34–36]. The lower rate of stroke in these contemporary studies relative to rstgeneration carotid stenosis suggests that multimodal therapy is having an impact on reducing the stroke rate in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis.

Review Questions

1. Each of the following antiplatelet medications have been proven to reduce stroke except: A. Aspirin B. Clopidogrel C. Aspirin+dipyridamole D. Ticagrelor

Answer: D

Current Clinical Trials

CREST-2 is an ongoing study to evaluate CAS or CEA compared to intensive medical management for asymptomatic carotid stenosis of 70–99% [37]. Medical therapy in CREST-2 includes all the pharmacologic treatments referred to in this chapter [38].

Intensive medical management consists of aspirin 325 mg daily throughout the follow-up period, with CAS patients also receiving clopidogrel in addition to aspirin for 30–90days. The goal systolic blood pressure is ≤140mmHg and LDL <70mg/dl. Secondary risk factors such as smoking, diabetes mellitus, weight, and physical activity will be managed using the INTERVENT program. Statin loading is required for patients undergoing CEA or CAS who were not previously treated with statins. In addition, for patients with hyperlipidemia who are not able to reach the target LDL with high potency statins, treatment with injectable PCSK9 inhibitors is an option. These novel medications have recently been found to reduce cardiovascular events in patients with hyperlipidemia [39].

Conclusion

The landscape of medical management for patients with atherosclerotic disease continues to evolve. In clinical trials and community practice, the rate of cardiovascular events is dropping in conjunction with improvements in medical therapy. Surgeons and interventional physicians should work with medical management physicians to ensure optimal outcomes for patients.
