Summary

Role of vitamin D in cardiovascular disease is controversial. Here the investigators aimed to investigate the association of vitamin D deficiency and carotid plaque morphology as well as outcome of participants with high-grade carotid artery stenosis undergoing carotid endarterectomy.

332 consecutive participants undergoing carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis, were prospectively included in the study, and vitamin D levels were determined prior to surgery using chemiluminescence-immunoassay.
