Hyperperfusion has been reported in 1% to 3% after carotid artery stenting (CAS) [1]. Although hyperperfusion evidence in those patients with the typical clinical syndrome seems to be a critical aspect of the CHS, the severity of the cerebral perfusion increase that is needed to develop the CHS is not clear [2]. Definitions with different degrees of hyperperfusion have been used to diagnose CHS, although the most widely used is an increase in cerebral blood flow of more than 100% compared with baseline values [1]. The aim of the study was to validate prospectively the transcranial Doppler (TCD) criteria in diagnosis of CHS after CAS in a nationwide study. %K Brain Edema %K Middle Cerebral Artery %K Blood Pressure %K Consciousness %K Cerebral Hemorrhage %K Angioplasty %K Hospitals %~
