staged procedures at separate sittings. It is our
current practice to perform CEA first under cervical
block. Some patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency
may improve with CEA alone. Patients
remaining symptomatic are treated 3to6weeks
later by CST or CSB under general anesthesia.
Further study of this staged approach is necessary
to confirm if it will yield more favorable perioperative
results.
