Carotid artery disease is also called carotid artery stenosis. The term refers to the narrowing of the carotid arteries. This narrowing is usually caused by the buildup of fatty substances and cholesterol deposits, called plaque. Carotid artery occlusion refers to complete blockage of the artery.
Narrowing of the carotid arteries less than 50% is considered part of normal aging. Narrowing of the carotid arteries between 50-70% carries a low risk of stroke and should be monitored. Narrowing of the carotid arteries more than 70% carries a 2-4% risk of stroke per year (10-20% over five years).
A carotid duplex ultrasound is performed to evaluate symptoms including dizziness, loss of memory, stroke, loss of musclecontrol and other symptoms that might result from narrowing or blockage of the vessels (carotid arteries) on either side of your neck. A carotid ultrasound can also be used to screen for stroke risk.
bilaterally symmetrical vessels are internal carotid artery and the renal vein.
Bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion (BICAO) is a rare disease leading to serious cerebrovascular disease and complications including recurrent ischemic stroke or death. There are very few cases reported on BICAO, especially among young adults.
With this update, as long as bilateral carotid artery disease is documented with occlusion and stenosis, code I65. 23 (Occlusion and stenosis of bilateral carotid arteries) should be used. If stenosis and occlusion is not documented with carotid artery disease, code I77.
