DIAZ DIAZ, Antonio Jesús. Bilateral carotid endarterectomy at the same surgical time. Rev Cubana Angiol Cir Vasc [online]. 2021, vol.22, n.3  Epub 01-Dez-2021. ISSN 1682-0037.

Patients with bilateral stenosis have a high incidence of hemispheric clinical and cerebral infarctions in relation to the first carotid and waiting for a second surgery of the stenotic contralateral carotid. Bilateral carotid endarterectomy at the same surgical time represents a challenge for the vascular surgeon because of the complications it can entail. But a correct selection of the patient with low surgical risk can be made, an analysis of the location and characteristics of the plaques that cause stenosis, and also an analgesic technique that allows constant monitoring of brain dysfunction and follows technical principles. This study aimed to associate the above criteria with a case of bilateral carotid endarterectomy at the same surgical time. A 72-year-old male patient who had suffered transient ischemic attacks without neurological sequelae was selected. The procedure was performed without perioperative or postoperative complications, so it is proposed as a safe alternative to be carried out in patients with bilateral stenosis.
