Radiation-induced Carotid Stenosis
Radiation therapy remains an important component of the treatment of head and neck cancers. Carotid stenosis is a well-known complication of this intervention, and surgical management of this condition is complicated by scarring and inflammation in the cervical region. We discuss the pathogenesis of radiation-induced carotid stenosis as well as its management using open and endovascular techniques.
