ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEWe describe a left‐handed patient with transient aphasia and bilateral carotid stenosis. Computed tomography (CT) arteriography showed a 90% stenosis of the right and 30% stenosis of the left internal carotid artery. Head CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed no recent ischemic changes. As only the symptomatic side would require surgical intervention, and because hemispheric dominance for language in left‐handed patients may be either left or right sided, a preoperative assessment of hemispheric dominance was required....
Abstract We assessed the accuracy of colour duplex ultrasound for the detection of severe (7099 %) symptomatic carotid stenosis in a clinical setting, in order to assess whether it could make carotid angiography unnecessary. In 152 patients with a transient ischaemic attack or non-disabling ischaemic stroke in the carotid distribution, we compared the degree of colour duplex ultrasound stenosis with...
