This study aimed to identify clinical and procedural predictors of restenosis after CEA and CAS.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This was a single centre retrospective cohort study. All patients who underwent primary CEA or CAS between January 2011 and December 2024 were included. The primary outcome was severe restenosis, (≥ 70% restenosis and/or re-intervention for restenosis > 30 days). The secondary outcome was any restenosis (≥ 50%).

Severe restenosis occurred in 5.5% of patients, with similar rates after CEA and CAS. Any restenosis occurred in 10.3% (10.7% CEA vs. 9.0% CAS). In the overall cohort, women had a higher hazard of developing severe restenosis (hazard ratio [HR] 1.77, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.03 - 3.02), whereas greater ipsilateral symptom severity at presentation was associated with a lower hazard of both severe (HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.55 - 0.95) and any restenosis (HR 0.67, 95% CI 0.55 - 0.82).
