My brother-in-law had a sonnagram where he had 50% plaque in his neck artery. They are doing more testing and might have to do a stent. Curious if anyone knows of someone who had this. Are survival chances high?

My grandfather had both of his carotid arteries cleaned out and it worked fine for him. He was about 80 when he had it done.

Stenting is a fairly common procedure. Getting one in the neck is likely low risk, they're more commonly used around the heart. Dick Cheney has at least one.

Would this be before or after their six month wait?
