Carotid endarterectomy is the procedure of choice in the surgical treatment of atherosclerotic disease of carotid arteries to prevent ischemic
and embolic cerebral complications. Traditionally, carotid endarterectomy is performed using primary repair, patch plasty and eversion
endarterectomy techniques. We present a novel technique of carotid endarterectomy that preserves vessel continuity without stenosis, avoids
the use of autologous or synthetic patches, and ensures complete endarterectomy.
