In this episode, host Rick Greene, MD, FACS, talks with Brajesh Lal, MBBS, FACS, professor of vascular surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and chief of vascular service at the Baltimore Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Dr. Lal and colleagues recently published research on Medical Management and Revascularization for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis in The New England Journal of Medicine, finding that adding stenting to medical management for carotid stenosis helps reduce the risk of stroke or death within 4 years; however, Dr. Lal tells Dr. Greene it’s too soon to discount the benefits of carotid endarterectomy.
