Recanalization of a chronic long segment ICA near-occlusion using a newly designed carotid artery stent
A 67-year-old female presented with subacute transient visual disturbances in her left eye and subacute watershed infarctions in the left MCA territory due to a long segment chronic internal carotid artery (ICA) near-occlusion following ICA stenting (CAS). Angioplasty was performed using two newly designed stents (CARESTO<sup>®</sup> heal, Acandis, Pforzheim, Germany) from the ICA origin into the cavernous segment without complications, with a favorable clinical outcome.
