2 Fig Kaplan-Meier curves for 1-year freedom from adverse events in nonoctogenarians and octogenarians. A, Cumulative survival: 19% of octogenarians did not survive to 1 year after carotid stenting. B, Stroke-free survival: 10% of nonoctogenarians have freedom from stroke or death at 1 year; 24% of octogenarians either have a stroke or die by 1 year after stenting. C, Freedom from stroke: 11.3% of octogenarians had strokes by 1 year. The freedom stroke advantage in nonoctogenarians continues from the periprocedural period out to 1-year follow-up. D, Freedom from major adverse events: 25% of octogenarians and 13% of nonoctogenarians had a stroke, myocardial infarction, or died by 1 year.
