Stroke Prevention
Often strokes occur as the result of a blockage in one of the carotid arteries (two main arteries in the neck that supply blood to the brain). In order to prevent a stroke caused by a blocked artery, patients may undergo a procedure to remove the blockage, either carotid artery stenting or carotid endarterectomy. HUMC complication rates are superior to the national benchmark.
