The Carotid Artery Surgery market is a subset of the larger Surgical Procedures market. It involves the surgical treatment of carotid artery disease, which is caused by the buildup of plaque in the carotid arteries. This buildup can lead to stroke, so the surgery is used to reduce the risk of stroke. The procedure involves the removal of the plaque from the artery walls, and can be done either endovascularly or through open surgery. Endovascular surgery is minimally invasive and involves the insertion of a stent to keep the artery open. Open surgery involves the removal of the plaque through an incision in the neck.
Companies in the Carotid Artery Surgery market include Medtronic, Boston Scientific, Abbott, Johnson & Johnson, and Stryker. Show Less Read more
