摘要
Recently published guidelines recommend that carotid surgery, when appropriate, is performed within two weeks after a transient ischemic attack or a minor stroke. This represents a marked change in comparison with earlier practice, where surgery was delayed, often for months. There is reason to go further than the current guidelines and perform the operation within hours. This suggestion is discussed in relation to the principles of evidence based medicine.
