A Matched Case–Control Study on Early and Late Results of Carotid Endarterectomy Performed in Young Patients

Abstract: CEA in patents aged 60 or less is safe and provides significantly better long-term results than those obtained in patients over 60 in terms of survival and stroke-free survival. Younger patients appear to have higher rates of recurrent carotid stenosis compared to the older cohort; however, these rarely require a secondary intervention.

“…During the study period, the rate of late restenosis was significantly greater in the younger patients compared with the elderly patients. The present observations partly corroborate a recent study reported by Dorigo et al, [16] performed in a Western population, which found that younger patients had a more favorable late outcome in terms of overall survival but an increased risk of late restenosis compared with elderly patients. However, the elderly participants in the study of Dorigo et al [16] had a poorer long-term stroke-free survival rate, in contrast to our observations.…”

However, the elderly participants in the study of Dorigo et al [16] had a poorer long-term stroke-free survival rate, in contrast to our observations. Our findings of a higher risk of late MAE occurrence in the elderly group could be explained by the higher late any-cause mortality rate in the elderly group.…”
