Table 1. Volumetric flow changes in extracranial arteries in various stages of treatment.
| Artery | Flow volume [mL/min] | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Before the first surgery – EA RICA | After the first surgery – EA RICA | Before the second surgery – EA LICA | After EA LICA and stent implantation | |
| RICA | 57 | 367 | 426 | 318 |
| RECA | 152 | 150 | 78 | 119 |
| RVA | 88 | 121 | 60 | 44 |
| LICA | 172 | 175 | 89 | 243 |
| LECA | 155 | 166 | 54 | 52 |
| LVA | 131 | 74 | 59 | 87 |
| Total CBF | 755 | 1053 | 766 | 863 |
| CBF – cerebral blood flow; EA – endarterectomy; LECA – lateral external carotid artery; LICA – left internal carotid artery; LVA – left vertebral artery; RECA – right external carotid artery; RICA – right internal carotid artery; RVA – right vertebral artery. | ||||
