About the clinic
Carotid endarterectomy at Prof. Öztekin Oto Heart Clinic in Istanbul helps treat advanced carotid artery disease. This procedure is performed by Prof. Dr. Öztekin Oto, a surgeon with over 35 years of experience in cardiovascular care. The clinic holds a Health Tourism Authorization Certificate and is part of the Health Türkiye registration system.
Expert Surgical Care
Prof. Dr. Öztekin Oto leads the clinic as a specialist in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery. He is a Fellow of the European Society of Cardiology and the American College of Cardiology.

The Carotid Endarterectomy Procedure
This surgery addresses carotid artery stenosis, which is the narrowing of the main arteries in the neck. The surgeon makes an incision at the site where plaque has built up. He then removes the calcified plaque layer to clear the blockage. Finally, the artery is closed using a specialized patch to prevent future narrowing. In some cases, the clinic may offer angioplasty and stenting as an alternative treatment.
Patient Safety and Experience
The clinic often performs this surgery under local anesthesia. This method helps lower risks for elderly patients or those with other high-risk medical conditions. Since the patient stays awake, the surgical team can monitor brain function in real-time. This specialized cardiac center focuses only on heart and vascular health to maintain a high standard of care.
