Can patients with cerebrovascular disease do stent ?

Cerebrovascular disease can be stented, but before stent treatment, it is recommended that patients do cerebral angiography to clarify the degree of vascular stenosis during the entire cerebrovascular course, as well as the degree of atherosclerotic plaque, and whether the patient has the indication for stent. Generally, the degree of stenosis is more than 75 %, and the blocked blood vessels are in the parts of several large arteries. This situation is recommended for patients with cerebrovascular stenting. 


For severe cerebrovascular stenosis, the effect of stent treatment is relatively positive, but after stent surgery, patients need to take long-term antiplatelet aggregation drugs, such as aspirin and clopidogrel bisulfate. Patients should also control the risk factors to avoid further aggravation of cerebral vascular occlusion.
