Endovascular stenting for extracranial internal carotid artery dissection - single-centre experience and literature overview.
Article in Polish journal of radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Purpose: Extracranial internal carotid artery dissections (EICAD) remain a relatively common cause of ischaemic events in young patients. Currently, there is no consensus on standardised use of endovascular therapy in the treatment of these patients, but available data suggest that conservative treatment is not sufficient in 15% of cases. The aim of our study was to evaluate if endovascular stent placement was safe and effective for the treatment of extracranial internal carotid artery dissection, and whether it should be considered in properly selected patients. Material and methods: This single-centre, retrospective study aimed to evaluate procedural and clinical outcomes of patients with EICAD who underwent endovascular stenting between 2015 and 2024. Procedural and clinical efficacy and safety, the rate of complications, and long-term outcomes were noted. Results: A total of 21 patients (10 females) with an average age of 53 years underwent stenting for EICAD. Technical success was achieved in all cases. Perioperative complications were noted in 2 cases. Neurological evaluation performed at 6-month follow-up showed very good clinical results in the majority of cases (mRS 0 and mRS 1 were 76% and 19%, respectively). Control imaging examinations confirmed stent patency in all cases. No long-term mortality was observed. Conclusions: This retrospective study demonstrated procedural and clinical safety and efficacy of endovascular stenting in patients with extracranial internal carotid artery dissection. That is why endovascular therapy should be proposed to individuals with unsatisfactory response to medical treatment and in cases of disease progression.
