In patients with asymptomatic significant carotid artery stenosis (≥60%), does immediate carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduce the stroke risk as compared to deferral of CEA?<!-- This should be a PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) style question. As an example, the ACCORD trial's clinical question is shown below, but you should replace it with the clinical question addressed by the trial you're summarizing. --> | In patients with asymptomatic significant carotid artery stenosis (≥60%), does immediate carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduce the stroke risk as compared to deferral of CEA?<!-- This should be a PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) style question.
