Abstract
Because of the current controversy over the best management of the near total ICA occlusion, prospective observational studies are needed to demonstrate its prevalence in the symptomatic and asymptomatic population and any associated excess stroke risk. Based on the current evidence, surgery is the treatment of choice in most centres but its validity over best medical treatment remains untested.
