Popis: Purpose: We examined postoperative stent and lumen expansions after carotid artery stenting (CAS) in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Furthermore, we investigated factors influencing the stent and lumen expansions in a follow-up period. Subjects: 134 cases (128 patients) who underwent CAS and performed follow-up cerebral angiography 12 months after CAS were enrolled into this study. The stenosis rate based on the stent and lumen diameters on follow-up angiography as a percentage of that immediately after CAS was evaluated. Results: Both the stent and lumen diameters were significantly dilated 12 months after CAS (p
