"STA-MCA bypass with encephalo-duro-myo-synangiosis combined with bifrontal encephalo-duro-periosteal-synangiosis" as a one-staged revascularization strategy for pediatric moyamoya vasculopathy.

摘要: Purpose Moyamoya vasculopathy progressively compromises cerebral blood flow resulting in chronic hypoperfusion. The middle artery (MCA) territory and the bifrontal areas are regions most frequently affected. Although techniques aim to only revascularize MCA territory, augmentation of is importance pediatric moyamoya population since these play an important role cognition, intellectual development, lower extremity sphincter function. We recently described a one-staged surgical procedure combining revascularization three regions, unilaterally frontal bilaterally. purpose this article report our experience eight children emphasize rational for revascularization.
