At present there is still ongoing debate related to difference in outcome between local and general anaesthesia, and methods of determining the need for a shunt. However, excellent outcomes can be achieved by performing carotid endarterectomy under local local

Carotid endarterectomy itself can cause strokes, so to be of benefit in preventing strokes over time, the risks for combined 30-day mortality and stroke risk following surgery should be < 3% for asymptomatic people and ≤ 6% for symptomatic people.
