The Efficacy of Single Barrel Superficial Temporal Artery-middle Cerebral Artery Bypass in Treatment of Adult Patients with Ischemic-type Moyamoya Disease

Abstract: ObjectiveSo far, there is no study answering the question of which type of surgical technique is practically the most useful in the treatment of adult patients with ischemic type moyamoya disease (MMD). We evaluated the efficacy of single barrel superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass in the treatment of adult patients with ischemic type MMD by retrospectively collecting clinical and radiological data.Materials and MethodsA retrospective review identified 31 adult patients who und… Show more

“…NDS score in control group was not significantly changed at 6 and 12 months after treatment compared with pretreatment values, while NDS score in observation group was significantly reduced at 6 and 12 months after treatment compared with pretreatment values. The data show that interventional treatment of blood vessels can improve neurological function in patients, which is consistent with the findings reported by Ha et al ( 21 ). Vascular intervention can expand stenosed blood vessels, thereby restoring brain tissue blood supply, promoting the repair of damaged brain regeneration and improving patient's neurological function.…”

“…The Caucasian Krupp Hospital cohort showed that, with the use of duplex ultrasound, the patency of the STA–MCA bypass at 3 months was 100% (22). In addition, Ha et al showed that the postoperative patency of single barrel STA-MCA was 88.4% on follow-up imaging (mean, 16.5 months) (23). In our study, the patency of the bypasses was 88.3% on follow-up DSA (median, 18 months), which was similar with the study of Ha et al…”

“…The long-term graft patency rate after direct or combined revascularization for overall MMD was reported to be 88.3–100.0%, and hemorrhagic presentation was indicated to have an inverse effect on graft patency [ 12 , 13 , 18 , 21 , 23 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. About 22.5–45.1% direct anastomosis was observed to be occluded during postoperative angiographic follow-up of 10–18 months [ 12 , 13 ].…”
