【 摘 要 】
Carotid webs are known to cause acute ischemic stroke in younger adults and have a high recurrence rate. Herein, we report a case of a symptomatic carotid web in a 51-year-old man who was transferred to our hospital after developing consciousness disturbance and left hemiparesis . He was diagnosed with right middle cerebral artery occlusion and underwent mechanical thrombectomy . Because his carotid web was the likely embolic source, we performed carotid artery stenting using a dual-layer stent to crimp the vessel wall and secure closure of the web pocket. Follow-up angiography was performed at 3 weeks after stenting, and endothelialization on the web pocket was confirmed. The high scaffolding effect of the dual layer stent may promote the endothelialization on the carotid web.
