Endovascular treatment of carotid stenoses is increasingly used. Frequently temporary occlusion balloons or filters are placed distal to the stenosis to gain additional protection against cerebral emboli. There is still a scientific debate about the usefulness of such distal protection devices. The following contribution reviews existing techniques and their clinical results and should allow for a critical discussion and selection of current techniques and materials.
颈动脉狭窄的血管内治疗应用越来越广泛。通常会在狭窄远端放置临时闭塞球囊或过滤器，以增强对脑栓塞的保护。关于此类远端保护装置的效用仍存在科学争论。以下文稿回顾了现有技术及其临床结果，应有助于对当前技术和材料进行批判性讨论和选择。
