It was reported that one day after a left transcarotid artery revascularization (tcar) procedure the patient experienced right sided weakness and facial droop.Before the stroke, the patient experienced a brief period of hypertension over 200 systolic for approximately five minutes.Imaging revealed a compressed stent due to the calcified lesion.The patient's symptoms had resolved however, the physician elected to reline the stent with an additional third-party stent.At this time, it is unknown if the reported event is related to procedural issues, the patient's pre-existing condition, patient resistance/non-compliance to medication or a silk road medical device, hence, the event will be reported out of abundance of caution.
