Introduction —It is well known that surgical revascularization can improve cerebral hemodynamics and prevent further ischemic cerebrovascular events in moyamoya disease. However, a certain subgroup of patients repeats ischemic attacks even after surgery because of insufficient surgery or disease progression during follow-up periods. Hypothesis —Relevant designs and techniques in additional bypass surgery can resolve ischemic cerebrovascular events in patients with moyamoya disease refractory to previous bypass surgery. Methods —This study included totally 7 patients (9 hemispheres) with moyamoya disease refractory to previous bypass surgery. There were 5 children and 2 adults. They underwent previous bypass surgery in Japan and Europe 6 to 240 months before admission. Based on precise clinical and radiological analysis, cerebrovascular events were considered to occur because of insufficient bypass surgery in 5 patients and disease progression in the ipsilateral posterior cerebral artery in 2. Surgical strategies included wide craniotomy to cover the area where cerebral hemodynamics is still impaired and appropriate bypass procedures such as STA-MCA anastomosis, OA-PCA anastomosis, and indirect bypass. Using [123]I-IMP SPECT or [15]O-gas PET, cerebral hemodynamics was precisely examined before and after surgery Results —Postoperative course was uneventful and cerebral hemodynamics significantly improved in all 7 patients. Postoperative cerebral angiography revealed that additional bypass provided collateral blood flow to ischemic area before surgery. Ischemic cerebrovascular events rapidly resolved in 5 patients and gradually decreased in 2. Conclusion —This study strongly suggests adequate surgical design and procedures can resolve ischemic cerebrovascular events in patients with moyamoya disease refractory to previous bypass surgery.

Neurological Deterioration

Object Young patients with moyamoya disease frequently exhibit extensive cerebral infarction at the time of initial presentation, and even in the early postoperative period. To investigate clinical characteristics in the early postoperative period, the authors prospectively analyzed findings of MR imaging, MR angiography, and SPECT before and after surgery. The authors focused in particular on how postoperative neurological deterioration occurred. Methods Between August 2005 and June 2009, 22 patients younger than 18 years of age with moyamoya disease were treated at Miyagi Children's Hospital. The mean patient age (± SD) was 8.58 ± 4.55 years (range 2–17 years). Superficial temporal artery–middle cerebral artery bypass and indirect bypass of encephalosynangiosis between the brain surface and the temporal muscle, galea, and dura mater were performed in 35 hemispheres. Magnetic resonance imaging and MR angiography were performed before surgery, at 7 days postoperatively, and 3–6 months after surgery. A 123I-isopropyl iodoamphetamine SPECT scan was also obtained pre- and postoperatively. Results During the postoperative period, neurological deterioration was observed after 15 operations (10 cases of motor paresis, 1 of aphasia, and 4 of sensory disturbance) in 13 patients. All symptoms had resolved by the time of discharge, except in 2 patients who suffered cerebral infarction. All patients exhibited disappearance (94.3%) or reduction (5.7%) of transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) during the follow-up period. Perioperative studies revealed 2 different types of radiological findings, focal uptake decrease on SPECT indicative of cerebral ischemia due to dynamic change in cerebral hemodynamics caused by bypass flow, the so-called watershed shift, and perioperative edematous lesions on MR imaging due to cerebral hyperperfusion. The frequent occurrence of preoperative TIAs was significantly associated with watershed shift, whereas preoperative MR imaging findings and preoperative SPECT findings were not. Age at operation was the only factor significantly associated with postoperative hyperperfusion. Conclusions In young patients, moyamoya disease exhibits rapid progression, resulting in poor clinical outcome. The risk of postoperative neurological deterioration in very young moyamoya patients with frequent TIAs should be noted. The findings in this study showed that direct bypass is not completely safe in patients with moyamoya disease because it causes dynamic change in postoperative cerebral hemodynamics.
