Carotid Artery Stenosis Treatment In India

Carotid artery stenosis narrows the carotid arteries that supply blood to the brain. This condition often results from atherosclerosis and increases the risk of stroke. Fortunately, India offers advanced treatments for carotid artery stenosis, including carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS).

Treatment Options

Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) involves surgically removing plaque from the carotid artery to restore blood flow. In contrast, carotid artery stenting (CAS) uses a stent to keep the artery open. Both procedures aim to prevent stroke by improving blood flow to the brain.

Cost and Hospital Stay

The cost of carotid artery stenosis treatment for international patients ranges from USD 4050 to USD 4950. Patients generally stay in the hospital for two days and spend seven additional days outside for recovery. The total cost varies based on the patient’s diagnosis and the chosen facility.

Diagnosis and Procedure

Doctors use imaging tests like Doppler ultrasound, CT angiography, or MRI angiography to evaluate the severity of stenosis. Based on these results, they recommend the appropriate treatment. For significant blockage (70% or more) and symptoms like transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), CEA is often recommended. CAS is suitable for patients at high risk for surgical complications.

Recovery and Follow-Up

Recovery from CEA or CAS is usually swift, with patients resuming normal activities within a few weeks. Follow-up care includes regular check-ups and lifestyle modifications to reduce the risk of recurrence. Indian hospitals provide excellent care with modern technology and skilled surgeons.
