INDICATION FOR CAROTID ARTERY REVASCULARIZATION. A JOINT SURVEY BY THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR VASCULAR SURGERY AND THE EUROPEAN SOCIETY OF VASCULAR SURGERY

In 2009 Professor Professors Giorgio M. Biasi and Frans Moll, as Presidents of respectively the ISVS and the ESVS, considered the opportunity to set up a survey on indication for the treatment of carotid bifurcation stenosis for the prevention of stroke. The idea derived from the consideration that what happens in the "real world" is different from what are the results of randomized controlled trials (RCT) and well-designed and well-conducted observational studies.

We are asking vascular specialists to complete the survey about indication for carotid artery revascularization.  

ISVS members will receive further information directly.  

Thank you very much for your interest and consideration.

Sincerely,
Giorgio M Biasi (ISVS President)
