This position statement provides guidelines for assessing risk associated
with carotid endarterectomy and defines the point at which risk is too high
to perform surgery for specific indications described below. Morbidity and
mortality levels are discussed. This statement does not address indications
for surgery or merits of specific medical or surgical treatments. Results
of current studies that compare relative risk of various treatments for
carotid artery disease are not yet available.
