Abstract We present the case of a 34-yr-old male who suffered repeated ischemic events resulting in right-sided weakness. He was found to have left M1 segment near occlusion on angiography with a large area of uncompensated hypoperfusion. The patient underwent a direct superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass. Direct bypass in the acute setting of ischemia has been previously described.1-5 Moyamoya ischemic disease can be treated with either direct or indirect surgical revascularization. There have been several techniques developed for direct bypasses in moyamoya ischemic disease. These include the standard 1-donor 1-recipient (1D1R) end-to-side (ES) bypass, the “double-barrel” 2-donor 2-recipient (2D2R) ES bypass, and the more recently developed 1-donor 2-recipient (1D2R)6,7 utilizing both an ES and a side-to-side (SS) bypass with a 1-donor vessel. The case presentation, surgical anatomy, decision-making, operative nuances, and postoperative course and outcome are reviewed. The patient gave verbal consent for participating in the procedure and surgical video.

Abstract This case history of a man with bilateral carotid artery occlusions presents angiographic documentation of the embolization of a superficial temporal-middle cerebral artery bypass. The embolic source was thrombotic and/or atheromatous debris that had collected in the persistent stump of one of the occluded internal carotid arteries.

A New Technique

Abstract OBJECTIVE: To describe a new technique of suturing microvessels with persistent perfusion via a temporary intraluminal microshunt. METHODS: Experiments were conducted in Wistar rats. Abdominal aorta grafts were explanted from donor rats. A soft silicon microcatheter was introduced into the lumen of this graft. The abdominal aorta of a recipient rat was prepared for end-to-side microvascular anastomosis. Acland clamps (S&T AG, Neuhausen, Switzerland) were applied, and a linear arteriotomy was made. One end of the graft-clad microcatheter was introduced into the lumen and occluded with a fenestrated Acland clamp. At a more distal part, a similar arteriotomy was performed, and the other end of the microcatheter was introduced into the lumen and clamped with a fenestrated Acland clip. This created a temporary shunt through the graft-clad microcatheter. Then, the graft was anastomosed to the arteriotomies at both ends, over the microcatheter, in an end-to-side manner. The microcatheter was explanted from the vessel lumen through an arteriotomy in the middle of the graft. The graft was clipped short to close this arteriotomy. The mean total occlusion time before perfusion was reestablished amounted to 3.7 minutes. This experiment was repeated in 12 animals (6 with and 6 without heparin) without technical complications. As controls, conventional anastomoses were made in 2 animals. RESULTS: Suturing microvessels mandates their occlusion during the period of anastomosis. Although ischemia is well tolerated by other tissue types, the brain is quite sensitive to even short windows of ischemia. Nonocclusive anastomotic techniques have been developed recently. These are confined to vessels with luminal diameters greater than 3 mm. We have evolved a novel technique that can be used with microvessels, as pertinent to superficial temporal artery-to-middle cerebral artery bypass. CONCLUSION: We have described a new technique for performing microvascular anastomoses over a temporary intraluminal microcatheter shunt.
