Carotid Artery Disease Management: Reconciling Competing Paradigms in the Era of Medical Optimization

Ting Zou

The optimal management of carotid artery stenosis remains one
of the most debated topics in vascular medicine, with evolving
evidence challenging long-established practices and creating
uncertainty in clinical decision-making. This controversy reflects
the complex interplay between advances in medical therapy,
refinements in revascularization techniques, and changing
patient demographics. As we navigate these competing
paradigms, a thoughtful reassessment of our approach to carotid
disease is warranted.
