If its in any position then its likely to mean continuous narrowing of the artery ,either by continued compression by adjacent structures or previous prolonged compression causing permanent narrowing/changes to the arterial wall. In either case you may be at significant risk of having an embolism (i couldn't tell you what that risk is quantifiably).This is what the surgeon will be worried about
