Хотя, если дитально взглянуть на результаты CREST, инсультов достоверно больше при стентировании (и это в руках опытных интервентов).

Background: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has grown rapidly as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) to prevent stroke. However, studies on the outcomes of CAS in elderly high-risk patients show increased risk of periprocedural stroke or death. We used Medicare database to evaluate one-year outcomes and to validate the role of CAS in the elderly.
Methods: All patients age 66 years and greater with a discharge diagnosis of carotid revascularization for the years 2004 and 2005 were identified in the 5% random sample of Medicare beneficiaries based on ICD-9-CM codes. Outcome measures included one-year post procedural stroke, myocardial infarction (MI) and all cause death rates. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to determine predictors of long-term
outcomes.
Results: 8082 patients undergoing either CAS (n=900) or CEA (n=7182) were included for analysis. 88% CAS and 87.6% CEA were asymptomatic. By one -year, CAS patients had an overall higher postoperative stroke rate (5.1% CAS vs 3.3% CEA, p=0.0058) but lower mortality (1.9% CAS vs 3.3% CEA, p=0.02). By multivariate analysis after adjusting for presentation type (symptomatic or asymptomatic), age, gender, and multiple comorbidities, CAS had a lower risk of death (HR 0.48; 95% CI 0.29-0.79, p=0.004) but higher risk of postoperative stroke (HR, 1.5; 95% CI 1.1-2.1, p=0.011). In the asymptomatic group, predictors of one-year mortality were age ≥ 80 (HR 2.4; 95% CI 1.8-3.2), heart failure (HR 2.0; 95% CI 1.4-2.9), renal failure (HR 1.8; 95% CI 1.0-2.9), COPD (HR 1.7; 95% CI 1.2-2.5). CAS was associated with lower mortality compared to CEA (HR 0.46; 95% CI 0.26-0.82). The predictors for one-year postoperative stroke was age ≥ 80 (HR 1.4; 95% CI 1.0-1.9), HTN (HR 1.45; 95% CI 1.1-2.0), DM (HR 1.55; 95% CI 1.1-2.2), COPD (HR 1.8; 95% CI 1.2-2.5). CAS was not a significant risk factor (vs CEA, p=0.33, HR 1.2; 95% CI 0.8-1.9).
Conclusions: Medicare patients undergoing CAS had an overall increased postoperative stroke and lower mortality compared with CEA. CAS was associated with similar risk of stoke but lower risk of death in asymptomatic patients. Further large randomized controlled trials are necessary to confirm these findings.
