As a medical professional with expertise in vascular health, I can provide you with information regarding the surgical management of carotid artery blockages. Carotid endarterectomy is a surgical procedure that is often recommended for patients with significant carotid artery stenosis.
**Surgery is best for most patients with symptoms**: Carotid endarterectomy should be strongly considered for symptomatic patients with 70 to 99 percent blockage in the carotid artery. It also should be considered for those with 50 to 69 percent stenosis.
