1.	Correspondence	Carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy for carotid stenosis Preview \| Full Text \| PDF We would like to congratulate the International Carotid Stenting Study (ICSS) investigators1 for including myocardial infarction in the main outcome measure for the interim safety analysis at 120 days. Indeed, although the prevalence of coronary artery disease is known to be high in patients with carotid stenosis, cardiac complications have been frequently neglected in carotid revascularisation trials.

2.	Correspondence	Carotid artery stenting versus surgery: adequate comparisons? Preview \| Full Text \| PDF A moratorium on carotid artery stenting (CAS) has been recently proposed.1 Current randomised evidence supports the notion that carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is better than CAS. A meta-analysis of the randomised trials compared the two strategies2 and included data from the recent International Carotid Stenting Study (ICSS).3 This meta-analysis indicated that patients who received CAS had a significant increased risk of 30-day death or stroke compared with patients who received CEA (odds ratio 1·60; 95% CI 1·26–2·02).
