Description
Cailean Weber and co-authors pool stroke trial data to study a rare artery flaw in a 2026 analysis. Carotid webs are thin shelves inside the neck artery that can trigger large vessel stroke. The team pooled five Dutch trials and a registry of such strokes. Expert readers checked baseline artery scans for webs.
Among over five thousand patients, about one percent had a web. Rates ran four times higher in patients under fifty than in older patients. Women carried webs more often, while high blood pressure and diabetes were less common in that group. Repeat stroke within three months struck far more often with a web. The flaw deserves more notice in young stroke workups.
