BACKGROUND This study was designed to investigate the impact of carotid artery stenting (CAS) on plasma levels of P-selectin, von Willebrand (vWF) and endothelin-1. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-seven patients who received CAS were divided into group 1 (one stent for a simple lesion, n = 38) and group 2 (two stents for complex lesions, n = 29). The levels of P-selectin, vWF and endothelin-1 were measured before CAS, 1 h, 6h, 24 h and 2 weeks after the stenting. RESULTS Sixty-one patients completed one-year follow up. Restenosis was noted in 14 (23 %) patients, among these three (4.8 %) had a restenosis of > 50 % of the vascular lumen. In all patients, the levels of P-selectin, vWF and endothelin-1 increased immediately after CAS (P 0.05). The 24 h vWF in patients with restenosis were higher than in non-restenosis group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS CAS results in a significant increase in plasma P-selectin, vWF and endothelin-1. The post-CAS levels of P-selectin, vWF and endothelin-1 are related to the extent of endothelial injury. Whether they are associated with restenosis 12 months after the treatment requires further investigation.
