“…Other advantages of the STA graft are no additional morbidity or postoperative pain caused by harvesting the radial artery or saphenous vein 9 and the absence of valves and varices (eg, saphenous vein graft) that can predispose the graft to occlusion with thrombus during manipulation. 12 However, the use of the STA graft has some limitations. If the STA is small, the procedure may not be feasible or may require an alternative donor vessel.…”

To the best of our knowledge, this microsurgical reconstruction of the PcaAs has not been performed before in a meningioma or a complex aneurysm case. We think the use of a superficial temporal artery as an in situ graft is more straightforward compared with other interposition grafts such as the radial artery graft or saphenous vein graft. The use of intracranial-to-intracranial techniques is the proper evolution of the use of classic extracranial-to-intracranial cerebral revascularization techniques.

Background:When microvascular anastomosis is performed in a deep, narrow operating field, securing space to throw knots is difficult. To simplify the procedure and avoid obstruction of the anastomosis, we use a continuous suturing with short-thread double-armed micro-suture.Methods:Sixty-four patients (38 cerebral revasculazation, 16 moyamoya disease, and 10 aneurysm surgery) undergoing microvaucular anastomosis were included. During anastomosis, a continuous suture was placed with short-thread double-armed micro-suture.Results:During 64 microanastomosis procedures, 64 consecutive continuous sutures were performed with 1-year follow up. All patients showed patency of anastomosis with long-term follow up.Conclusions:This technique is especially useful for anastomosis in a deep, narrow surgical field, such as in superior cerebellar artery anastomosis.

“…Reasons for occluding the ICA are the presence of an intracranial saccular, dissecting or blister aneurysms that cannot be secured by straightforward clipping or endovascular treatment, and skull base tumors that invade the arterial wall. [10][11][12] • Cerebral revascularization surgery of the ICA is rarely indicated.…”
