Abstract:
A 74-year-old man presented with a 3-week history of involuntary left-sided upper and lower extremity shaking without any focal neurologic deficit. Bilateral carotid artery duplex demonstrated severe stenosis of the right internal carotid artery and moderate stenosis of the left internal carotid artery. A right carotid endarterectomy was performed without complications and resulted in elimination of the left-sided involuntary movements postoperatively.
