Summary

This study may determine the incidence of complications that occur after patients undergo a surgery called Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA), which is a surgery that aims to decrease the risk of strokes in patients with a condition called carotid stenosis. Medical records will be accessed to find any information pertaining to postoperative complications. Additionally, it may determine the cognitive dysfunction of patients undergoing CEA, assessed by Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE).
