This study demonstrated that preoperative WMHs,
lacunes, total cerebral SVD score,
and carotid near-occlusion were independently associated with CH after CEA. In patients diagnosed with CH based on CBF
imaging, patients who developed CHS had a higher systolic BP in the early postoperative
period compared with those who did not.

hyperintensities (WMHs) (A) and the number of lacunes (B) for prediction of cerebral
hyperperfusion (CH) after surgery. (C) ROC curves of preoperative radiological
markers (Fazekas score of WMHs and the number of lacunes combined with the presence
of carotid near-occlusion) for prediction of CH after surgery. (D)
Relationships between the Fazekas score of WMHs, the number of lacunes, carotid
near-occlusion, and postoperative CH.
