STA-MCA Double-Barrel Bypass: A Systematic Review of Technique and Single-Arm Meta-Analysis of Outcomes. Neurosurg Rev 2024; 47:341. [PMID: 39030432 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-024-02520-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Conventionally, one branch of the superficial temporal artery (STA) is utilized to revascularize the middle cerebral artery (MCA). However, there is the possibility of utilizing both branches of the STA when performing the bypass, characterizing the double-barrel (DB) STA-MCA bypass. Notably, a lack of studies evaluating this technique led the authors to conduct a systematic review and single-arm meta-analysis. METHODS PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched systematically for publications of DB-STA-MCA bypass on November 1st, 2023. The findings were reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Case reports were not included for statistical analysis purposes. RESULTS The review included 408 patients and 534 bypasses from 34 studies. The main etiology was Moyamoya disease (64.6%), followed by cerebral ischemia (22.2%) and aneurysms (12.5%). The median of the mean follow-ups of each study was 12.8 months (range 1.5-87.9). The postoperative patency was 100%. The follow-up patency was 98% (95% CI: 96%-100%; I2 = 0%). The procedure-related mortality was 0% (95% CI: 0%-1%; I2 = 0%). Aneurysms obtained 87% (95% CI: 72%-100%; I2 = 4%) of good clinical outcomes, while Moyamoya disease yielded a rate of 70% (95% CI: 10%-100%; I2 = 97%). Ischemic complications occurred at a rate of 6% (95% CI: 2%-11%; I2 = 36%), while hemorrhagic occurred at 6% (95% CI: 1%-11%; I2 = 56%). Hyperperfusion syndrome rate was calculated as 18% (7%-30%; I2 = 55%) for Moyamoya disease. CONCLUSIONS The procedure appears to be safe, with excellent patency rates. The clinical efficacy for ischemic and Moyamoya diseases warrants further standardized robust investigation with a broader number of patients, and aneurysm studies are required to enhance sample sizes. The main complication for the Moyamoya subgroup is hyperperfusion syndrome.

Abstract
Moyamoya angiopathy is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular disease characterized by stenosis and occlusion of the distal segments of the internal carotid arteries and/or proximal segments of the middle and anterior cerebral arteries, with a gradual compensatory restructuring of the cerebral circulation to the system of the external carotid arteries. Today, the main treatment method for Moyamoya angiopathy is surgical revascularization of the brain. A search and analysis of publications on the treatment of adult patients with Moyamoya angiopathy was carried out in the PubMed and Medscape databases over the past 10 years. We present a case of an adult female patient with a hemorrhagic form of Moyamoya angiopathy stage IV according to J. Suzuki, who underwent staged combined revascularization of both cerebral hemispheres. Surgical revascularization included the creation of a low-flow extra-intracranial shunt combined with a combination of indirect synangiosis. The combination of direct and indirect methods of surgical revascularization enables to achieve the development of an extensive network of collaterals and fully compensate for cerebral circulatory disorders both in the early and late postoperative periods, which is confirmed by instrumental diagnostic data. Combined revascularization is the most effective modern method of treating patients with Moyamoya angiopathy due to the complementary influence of direct and indirect components of revascularization.

Application of protective superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass through the lateral supraorbital approach: Technical note. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2023; 230:107775. [PMID: 37244197 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2023.107775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The lateral supraorbital (LSO) approach is a minimally invasive craniotomy widely used in the surgical treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IAs). A protective bypass is considered a safety measure in high-risk and complex clipping procedures to maintain distal cerebral flow. However, the protective bypass has so far only been applied through a pterional or larger craniotomy. We aimed to describe the characteristics of the superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass through the LSO craniotomy to treat complex IAs. METHODS We retrospectively identified six patients with complex IAs who underwent clipping and a protective STA-MCA bypass through the LSO approach between January 2016 and December 2020. The STA donor artery was harvested through the same curvilinear skin incision with a small extension, and it was anastomosed to the opercular segment of the MCA. Subsequently, aneurysm clipping followed standardized steps. RESULTS Anastomosis was successful in all patients. Despite requiring temporary occlusion of the parent artery, all aneurysms were successfully clipped without any neurological deterioration. CONCLUSIONS A protective STA-MCA bypass is feasible through the LSO approach with certain technical modifications. This technique helps protect distal cerebral flow for safe clip placement in the treatment of complex IAs with the associated benefits of a less invasive craniotomy.

[PMID: 37332987 PMCID: PMC10272728 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1169440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective The optimal treatment approach for hemorrhagic moyamoya disease (HMMD) remains a topic of debate, particularly regarding the comparative efficacy of revascularization versus conservative treatment. Our study, which included a single-center case series and a systematic review with meta-analysis, aimed to determine whether surgical revascularization is associated with a significant reduction in postoperative rebleeding, ischemic events, and mortality compared to conservative treatment among East Asian HMMD patients. Methods We conducted a systematic literature review by searching PubMed, Google Scholar, Wanfang Med Online (WMO), and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). The outcomes of surgical revascularization and conservative treatment, including rebleeding, ischemic events and mortality, were compared. The authors' institutional series of 24 patients were also included and reviewed in the analysis. Results A total of 19 East Asian studies involving 1,571 patients as well as our institution's retrospective study of 24 patients were included in the study. In the adult patients-only studies, those who underwent revascularization had significantly lower rates of rebleeding, ischemic events, and mortality compared to those who received conservative treatment (13.1% (46/352) vs. 32.4% (82/253), P < 0.00001; 4.0% (5/124) vs. 14.9% (18/121), P = 0.007; and 3.3% (5/153) vs. 12.6% (12/95), P = 0.01, respectively). In the adult/pediatric patients' studies, similar statistical results of rebleeding, ischemic events, and mortality have been obtained (70/588 (11.9%) vs. 103/402 (25.6%), P = 0.003 or <0.0001 in a random or fixed-effects model, respectively; 14/296 (4.7%) vs. 26/183 (14.2%), P = 0.001; and 4.6% (15/328) vs. 18.7% (23/123), P = 0.0001, respectively). Conclusion The current single-center case series and systematic review with meta-analysis of studies demonstrated that surgical revascularization, including direct, indirect, and a combination of both, significantly reduces rebleeding, ischemic events, and mortality in HMMD patients in the East Asia region. More well-designed studies are warranted to further confirm these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To conduct a retrospective analysis of the safety and efficacy of one session treatment with cranioplasty and STA-MCA bypass after decompressive craniectomy (DC)in hemorrhagic moyamoya disease. METHODS From March 2019 to August 2021, five patients with hemorrhagic MMD after DC were admitted in nan fang hospital. All patients received digital subtraction angiography (DSA) to exclude any spontaneous revascularization between the cortex and temporal muscle and the preservation of STA. Then one stage treatment with superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass and cranioplasty were performed. If no suitable recipient artery was available, an encephalo-myo-synangiosis (EMS) procedure was used as a salvage plan. RESULTS Four patients underwent direct STA-MCA bypass, while one underwent EMS due to absence of a suitable recipient artery. All patients had no hemorrhage on postoperative CT, and no new infarcts were detected on MRI. There were no new recurrent symptoms at clinical follow-up 8 to 24 months after surgery. Three patients had improved Glasgow Outcome Scores (GOS), and two patients had stable GOS scores. Perfusion CT showed improvement in cerebral hemodynamics. Four DSA follow-up were performed, suggesting graft patency. CONCLUSION One session treatment with EC-IC bypass and cranioplasty are safe and effective in patients with MMD who have undergone previous decompressive craniectomy due to hemorrhagic attack.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Symptomatic hyperperfusion after cerebral revascularization for pediatric moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare phenomenon. The authors report a series of patients with this condition. OBSERVATIONS In all three patients in this case series, the combined revascularization was on the left side, the patency of bypass grafts was confirmed after surgery, and focal hyperemia around the anastomotic site was observed on single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). On the first to eighth days after surgery, all of the patients developed neurological manifestations, including motor aphasia, cheiro-oral syndrome, motor weakness of their right upper limbs, and severe headaches. These symptoms disappeared completely approximately 2 weeks after surgery, and all patients were discharged from the hospital. Quantitative SPECT was performed to determine the proportional change in cerebral blood flow (ΔRCBF) (to ipsilateral cerebellar ratio (denoted ΔRCBF) in the region of interest around the anastomoses, and the mean value was 1.34 (range, 1.29–1.41). LESSONS This rare condition, which develops soon after surgery, requires an accurate diagnosis by SPECT. One indicator is that the ΔRCBF has risen to 1.3 or higher. Subsequently, strategic blood pressure treatment and fluid management could prevent the development of hemorrhagic stroke.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after direct bypass surgery for Moyamoya disease (MMD) could contribute to neurological deterioration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of five-day bed rest in reducing the occurrence of postoperative ICH. METHODS This study included 122 consecutive hemispheres in 87 Japanese adult MMD patients, comprised of 80 control hemispheres from historical data and 42 hemispheres after five-day bed rest. They all underwent direct bypass surgery. The incidence of postoperative ICH and neurological deterioration assessed via the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) were investigated and statistically analyzed. RESULTS Postoperative ICH was observed in 9 out of the 80 (11.3%) control patients, but not in the 42 patients with five-day bed rest. The incidence of postoperative ICH and neurological deterioration via the mRS were significantly different between the two groups (p= 0.0268 and 0.0078, respectively). Univariate logistic analysis revealed that five-day bed rest significantly reduced the incidence of postoperative ICH (p= 0.0048). CONCLUSIONS Five-day bed rest after direct bypass surgery dramatically can reduce the incidence of postoperative ICH and neurological deterioration after direct bypass surgery.

Abstract
Whether surgical revascularization can prevent recurrent hemorrhage in hemorrhagic moyamoya disease (HMD) patients remains a matter of debate. This study mainly aims at the comparison of treatment effect between surgical revascularization and conservative treatment of adult HMD patients. We retrospectively enrolled 322 adult HMD patients, including 133 in revascularization group and 189 in conservative group. The revascularization group included patients who underwent combined (n = 97) or indirect revascularization alone (n = 36). Ninety-two and forty-one patients underwent unilateral and bilateral revascularization respectively. The modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to assess the functional status. The comparison was made based on initial treatment paradigm among two categories: (1) revascularization vs. conservative, (2) unilateral vs. bilateral revascularization. The rebleeding rate was significantly lower in revascularization group than that in conservative group (14.3% vs. 27.0%, P = 0.007). As for the functional outcomes, the average mRS was significantly better in revascularization group (1.7 ± 1.5) than that in conservative group (2.8 ± 1.9) (P < 0.001). The death rate in revascularization group was 8.3% (11/133), comparing to 20.1% (38/189) in conservative group (P = 0.004). While comparing between unilateral and bilateral revascularization within the revascularization group, the result demonstrated lower annual rebleeding rate in bilateral group (0.5%/side-year) than that in unilateral group (3.3%/side-year) (P = 0.001). This study proved the better treatment efficacy of surgical revascularization than that of conservative treatment in HMD patients, regarding both in rebleeding rate and mortality rate. Furthermore, bilateral revascularization seems more effective in preventing rebleeding than unilateral revascularization.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cause of cerebral hemorrhage and ischemia. Spontaneous development of collateral supply from the external carotid artery (ECA) may limit the use of donor arteries used in standard direct bypass techniques.
OBJECTIVE
To identify the technical feasibility of side-to-side (S-S) superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass and demonstrate the application of fourth generational bypass techniques in the treatment of MMD.
METHODS
S-S bypass was performed in order to maintain distal outflow in the donor STA. Fourth generation bypass techniques, including atypical anastomosis construction and intraluminal suturing were utilized.
RESULTS
The novel S-S STA-MCA bypass was performed, with patent flow in both recipient MCA and endogenous ECA-ICA collaterals supplied by the distal STA. Technical nuances, including proper alignment of donor vessel, tension reduction, and S-S anastomosis construction with intraluminal suturing technique are essential for successful bypass. Unique flow properties of this bypass were identified, resulting in flow augmentation to the recipient territory compared to standard end-to-side (E-S) techniques.
CONCLUSION
Fourth generational bypass techniques can be successfully applied to MMD, allowing for novel bypass construction. S-S anastomosis can result in potentially beneficial flow properties compared to standard E-S constructions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after bypass surgery is known as a complication of moyamoya disease (MMD). However, the incidence of CHS has not been accurately reported, and there is no consensus on related risk factors. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the incidence and characteristics of CHS in patients with MMD after revascularization surgery via meta-analysis. METHODS Relevant cohort studies were retrieved through a literature search of PubMed, Embase, and Ovid until December 1, 2018. Eligible studies were identified per search criteria. A systematic review and meta-analysis were used to assess the CHS total incidence, incidence in pediatric patients with MMD and adult patients with MMD, incidence for direct and combined bypass surgery, progress rate, and proportion of each symptom (including transient neurologic deficits [TNDs], hemorrhage, and seizure). RESULTS A total of 27 cohort studies with 2225 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The weighted proportions per random-effects model were 16.5% (range, 11.3%-22.3%) for CHS total incidence, 3.8% (range, 0.3%-9.6%) for pediatric patients with MMD, 19.9% (range, 11.7%-29.4%) for adult patients with MMD, 15.4% (range, 5.4%-28.8%) for direct bypass surgery, and 15.2% (range, 8.4%-23.2%) for combined bypass surgery. Progress rate was 39.5% (range, 28.7%-50.8%). The most common CHS-related symptom was TNDs (70.2%; range, 56.3%-82.7%), followed by hemorrhage (15.0%; range, 5.5%-26.9%) and seizure (5.3%; range, 0.6%-12.9%). CONCLUSIONS CHS is a common complication after revascularization surgery in MMD. It is more frequently seen in adult patients. The most common CHS-related symptom was TNDs, followed by hemorrhage and seizure.

Abstract
The superficial temporal artery (STA) plays a very important role in neurovascular diseases and procedures. However, until now, no comprehensive review of the role of STA in neurovascular diseases from a neurosurgical perspective has ever been published. To review research on the clinical importance of STA in neurovascular diseases, a literature search was performed using the PubMed database. Articles were screened for suitability and data relevance. This paper was organized following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. According to the literature, STA is one of the terminal branches of the external carotid artery and can give off scalp, muscle, and transosseous branches. STA-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass is very useful for intracranial ischemic diseases, including moyamoya disease, chronic ICA and MCA insufficiency, and even acute ischemic stroke. For intracranial complex aneurysms, STA bypass remains a major option that can serve as flow replacement bypass during aneurysmal trapping or insurance bypass during temporary parent artery occlusion. Occasionally, the STA can also be involved in dural AVFs (DAVFs) via to its transosseous branches. In addition, the STA can be used as an intraoperative angiography path and the path to provide endovascular treatments. Therefore, STA is a very important artery in neurovascular diseases.
