RESUMO
This report refers to a 69 year old woman, presenting severe stenosis of both carotid arteries, associated with coronary insufficiency. An acute incomplete transitory brain stroke made mandatory the simultaneous surgical approach of bilateral carotid arteries for endarterectomy and myocardial revascularization. The procedure can be performed safely in very selected and unstable cases.
