Description
Theodora van Elk and co-authors present a 2026 conference study on whether calcium load in neck artery plaque changes outcomes when two blockages are treated at once. Trials are still testing the best handling of the neck lesion in this paired pattern. Plaque makeup might sway who gains from a stent.
Patients came from three clot removal trials held from 2018 to 2022, with more than one hundred seventy cases. Calcium scores were read from arrival vessel scans. High scores showed no link to function at ninety days, neck re-narrowing at one day, death, or severe bleeding. Stent use did not change that flat pattern. The authors leave the stent call for paired lesions to the ongoing trials.
