Abstract
BACKGROUND Although bypass surgery is an effective treatment for moyamoya vasculopathy (MMV), the incidence of postoperative complications is still high. This study aims to introduce a novel evaluating system based on individualised pathophysiology of MMV, and to assess its clinical significance. METHODS This multicentre, prospective study enrolled adult patients with MMV from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University and National Center for Neurological Disorders, China between March 2021 and February 2022. Multimodal neuroimages containing structural and functional information were used to evaluate personalised disease severity and fused to localise the surgical field, avoid invalid regions and propose alternative recipient arteries. The recipient artery was further selected intraoperatively by assessing regional haemodynamic and electrophysiological information. The preanastomosis and postanastomosis data were compared with assist with the postoperative management. Patients who received such tailored revascularisations were included in the novel group and the others were included in the traditional group. The 30-day surgical outcomes and intermediate long-term follow-up were compared. RESULTS Totally 375 patients (145 patients in the novel group and 230 patients in the traditional group) were included. The overall complication rate was significantly lower in the novel group (p˂0.001). In detail, both the rates of postoperative infarction (p=0.009) and hyperperfusion syndrome (p=0.010) were significantly lower. The functional outcomes trended to be more favourable in the novel group, though not significantly (p=0.260). Notably, the proportion of good functional status was higher in the novel group (p=0.009). Interestingly, the preoperative statuses of perfusion and metabolism around the bypass area were significantly correlated with the occurrence of postoperative complications (P˂0.0001). CONCLUSIONS This novel evaluating system helps to identify appropriate surgical field and recipient arteries during bypass surgery for MMV to achieve better haemodynamic remodelling and pathophysiological improvement, which results in more favourable clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Introduction Controlling the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2 ) is an important consideration in patients with intracranial steno-occlusive disease to avoid reductions in critical perfusion from vasoconstriction due to hypocapnia, or reductions in blood flow due to steal physiology during hypercapnia. However, the normal range for resting PCO 2 in this patient population is not known. Therefore, we investigated the variability in resting end-tidal PCO 2 (P ET CO 2 ) in patients with intracranial steno-occlusive disease and the impact of revascularization on resting P ET CO 2 in these patients. Setting and Design Tertiary care center, retrospective chart review Materials and Methods We collected resting P ET CO 2 values in adult patients with intracranial steno-occlusive disease who presented to our institution between January 2010 and June 2021. We also explored postrevascularization changes in resting P ET CO 2 in a subset of patients. Results Two hundred and twenty-seven patients were included [moyamoya vasculopathy ( n = 98) and intracranial atherosclerotic disease ( n = 129)]. In the whole cohort, mean ± standard deviation resting P ET CO 2 was 37.8 ± 3.9 mm Hg (range: 26-47). In patients with moyamoya vasculopathy and intracranial atherosclerotic disease, resting P ET CO 2 was 38.4 ± 3.6 mm Hg (range: 28-47) and 37.4 ± 4.1 mm Hg (range: 26-46), respectively. A trend was identified suggesting increasing resting P ET CO 2 after revascularization in patients with low preoperative resting P ET CO 2 (<38 mm Hg) and decreasing resting P ET CO 2 after revascularization in patients with high preoperative resting P ET CO 2 (>38 mm Hg). Conclusion This study demonstrates that resting P ET CO 2 in patients with intracranial steno-occlusive disease is highly variable. In some patients, there was a change in resting P ET CO 2 after a revascularization procedure.

Impact of Cerebral Revascularization on Pial Collateral Flow in Patients With Unilateral Moyamoya Disease Using Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Angiography. Neurosurgery 2024:00006123-990000000-01092. [PMID: 38501815 DOI: 10.1227/neu.0000000000002905] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic steno-occlusive disease of the intracranial circulation that depends on neoangiogenesis of collateral vessels to maintain cerebral perfusion and is primarily managed with cerebral revascularization surgery. A quantitative assessment of preoperative and postoperative collateral flow using quantitative magnetic resonance angiography with noninvasive optimal vessel analysis (NOVA) was used to illustrate the impact of revascularization on cerebral flow distribution. METHODS A retrospective review of patients with unilateral MMD who underwent direct, indirect, or combined direct/indirect cerebral revascularization surgery was conducted between 2011 and 2020. Using NOVA, flow was measured at the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), ACA distal to the anterior communicating artery (A2), middle cerebral artery (MCA), posterior cerebral artery (PCA), and PCA distal to the posterior communicating artery (P2). Pial flow (A2 + P2) and collateral flow (ipsilateral [A2 + P2])-(contralateral [A2 + P2]) were measured and compared before and after revascularization surgery. Total hemispheric flow (MCA + A2 + P2) with the addition of the bypass graft flow postoperatively was likewise measured. RESULTS Thirty-four patients with unilateral MMD underwent cerebral revascularization. Median collateral flow significantly decreased from 68 to 39.5 mL/min (P = .007) after bypass. Hemispheres with maintained measurable bypass signal on postoperative NOVA demonstrated significant reduction in median collateral flow after bypass (P = .002). Median total hemispheric flow significantly increased from 227 mL/min to 247 mL/min (P = .007) after bypass. Only one patient suffered an ipsilateral ischemic stroke, and no patients suffered a hemorrhage during follow-up. CONCLUSION NOVA measurements demonstrate a reduction in pial collateral flow and an increase in total hemispheric flow after bypass for MMD, likely representing a decrease in leptomeningeal collateral stress on the distal ACA and PCA territories. Further studies with these measures in larger cohorts may elucidate a role for NOVA in predicting the risk of ischemic and hemorrhagic events in MMD.

Long-Term Resveratrol Intake for Cognitive and Cerebral Blood Flow Impairment in Carotid Artery Stenosis/Occlusion. J Stroke 2024; 26:64-74. [PMID: 38326707 PMCID: PMC10850448 DOI: 10.5853/jos.2023.02733] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Carotid artery stenosis or occlusion (CASO) is a causative disease of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) attributed to cerebral hypoperfusion, even without the development of symptomatic ischemic stroke. Preclinically, resveratrol has been demonstrated to play an important role in improving cognitive function in rodent CASO models. This study investigated the association between long-term resveratrol intake and improvements in cognitive and cerebral hemodynamic impairments in patients with CASO. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis of ≥50% or occlusion who underwent 15O-gas positron emission tomography (15O-gas PET) and neuropsychological tests such as Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale 13 (ADAS-Cog) twice between July 2020 and March 2022 allowing >125-day interval. Patients were administered 30 mg/day resveratrol after the first 15O-gas PET and neuropsychological tests were compared with those who were not. RESULTS A total of 79 patients were enrolled in this study; 36 received resveratrol and 43 did not. Over a mean follow-up of 221.2 and 244.8 days, long-term resveratrol treatment significantly improved visuospatial/executive function (P=0.020) in MoCA, and memory domain (P=0.007) and total score (P=0.019) in ADAS-Cog. Cerebral blood flow demonstrated improvement in the right frontal lobe (P=0.027), left lenticular nucleus (P=0.009), right thalamus (P=0.035), and left thalamus (P=0.010) on 15O-gas PET. No adverse events were reported. CONCLUSION Long-term daily intake of oral resveratrol may prevent or treat VCI by improving the cerebral blood flow in asymptomatic patients with CASO.

Abstract
Among the notable complications of direct hemodynamic reconstruction for moyamoya disease (MMD) is cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS). In this study, we evaluated hemodynamic changes in small regional microvasculature (SRMV) around the anastomosis site by using indocyanine green (ICG)-FLOW800 video angiography and verified that it better predicted the onset of CHS. Intraoperative ICG-FLOW800 analysis was performed on 31 patients (36 cerebral hemispheres) with MMD who underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass grafting at our institution. The regions of interest were established in the SRMV and thicker MCA around the anastomosis. Calculations were made for half-peak to time (TTP1/2), cerebral blood volume (CBV), and cerebral blood flow (CBF). According to the presence or absence of CHS after surgery, CHS and non-CHS groups of patients were separated. The results showed that ΔCBV and ΔCBF were substantially greater in SRMV than in MCA (p < 0.001). Compared with the non-CHS group, ΔCBF and ΔCBV of SRMV and MCA were considerably greater in the CHS group (p < 0.001). ΔCBF and ΔCBV on the ROC curve for both SRMV and MCA had high sensitivity and specificity (SRMV: ΔCBF, AUC = 0.8586; ΔCBV, AUC = 0.8158. MCA: ΔCBF, AUC = 0.7993; ΔCBV, AUC = 0.8684). ICG-FLOW800 video angiography verified the differential hemodynamic changes in the peri-anastomotic MCA and SRMV before and after bypass surgery in patients with MMD.

Abstract
Background Technical improvements for preventing postoperative symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion (CHP) during superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis for moyamoya disease (MMD) were seldom reported. Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the significance of application of a novel flow-controlled concept which voluntarily reduces the hemodynamic difference between the donor and recipient arteries based on the Hagen-Poiseuille law when performing direct anastomoses of recipient parasylvian cortical arteries (PSCAs) with anterograde hemodynamic sources from the MCA (M-PSCAs) in adult MMD. Design This was a retrospective observational study. Methods Direct anastomoses of recipient M-PSCAs were performed on 89 symptomatic hemispheres in 82 adult MMD patients in our hospital from January 2020 to June 2021. They were divided into the flow-controlled group (patients who received direct anastomosis under designed flow-controlled principles) and non-flow-controlled group (patients who received conventional direct anastomosis to obtain maximum flow). The patients' basic characteristics and incidence of postoperative CHP were compared between the two groups. Risk factors for occurrence of postoperative CHP were analyzed. Results Overall, 36 hemispheres were included in the non-flow-controlled group and 53 in flow-controlled group. The incidences of postoperative focal (22.6%) and symptomatic CHP (5.7%) in the flow-controlled group were significantly lower than those (focal, 52.8%; symptomatic, 25.0%) in the non-flow-controlled group (p = 0.003 and 0.009, respectively). Multivariate analysis revealed that the flow-controlled concept was significantly associated with the development of focal (p = 0.005) and symptomatic (p = 0.012) CHP. Conclusion The flow-controlled STA-MCA anastomosis can significantly decrease the incidence of postoperative CHP during direct anastomoses of recipient M-PSCAs in adult MMD.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the potential therapeutic benefits of Modified EDAS combined with superficial temporal fascia attachment-dural reversal surgery for the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.MethodsRetrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 33 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease, who were admitted to the Neurological Diagnosis and Treatment Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from December 2019 to June 2021. All patients were treated with Modified EDAS combined with superficial temporal fascia attachment-dural reversal surgery. At 3 months after operation, the outpatient department rechecked the patient's head CT perfusion imaging (CTP) to understand the intracranial cerebral blood flow perfusion. The DSA of the patient's head was re-examined 6 months after operation to observe the establishment of collateral circulation. The improved Rankin Rating Scale (mRS) score was used to evaluate the good prognosis rate of patients at 6 months after surgery. The mRS score ≤2 was defined as good prognosis.ResultsThe preoperative cerebral blood flow (CBF), local blood flow peak time (rTTP), and local mean transit time (rMTT) of 33 patients were 28.235 ml/(100 g·min), 17.702 s, 9.796 s, respectively. At 3 months after surgery, CBF, rTTP, and rMTT were 33.743 ml/(100 g·min), 15.688, and 8.100 s, respectively, with significant differences (P < 0.05). At 6 months after operation, the establishment of extracranial and extracranial collateral circulation was observed in all patients by re-examination of head DSA. At 6 months after operation, the good prognosis rate was 81.8%.ConclusionThe Modified EDAS combined with superficial temporal fascia attachment-dural reversal surgery is safe and effective in the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease, which can significantly increase the establishment of collateral circulation in the operation area and improve the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is the most common type of hemorrhage in moyamoya disease (MMD) with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), but the risk factors affecting the short-term prognosis of MMD with IVH in adults are still unclear. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients of MMD with IVH between January 1, 2018 and January 31, 2020 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. According to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 3 months after discharge, the patients were divided into mRS score ≤2 (good prognosis) group and mRS score >2 (poor prognosis) groups. Univariate and multivariate logistics regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the short-term prognosis of adult MMD with IVH. RESULTS Univariable analyses showed that patients in the poor prognosis group had a significantly older age of onset (48.48 ± 8.34 vs. 43.74 ± 5.44 years; P = 0.002), a higher percentage of hypertension (57.97% vs. 33.33%; P = 0.014), a higher percentage of tracheotomy (23.19% vs. 2.56%; P = 0.005), a lower Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score (7.90 ± 3.58 vs. 11.19 ± 2.56; P = 0.000), a higher Graeb score (7.46 ± 4.04 vs. 5.23 ± 1.93; P = 0.002), and treatment methods (P = 0.000). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the lower GCS score (odds ratio [OR], 1.761; P = 0.001) and higher Graeb score (OR, 1.767; P = 0.002) were independently associated with the poor prognosis of MMD with IVH, and surgery treatment (OR, 0.032; P = 0.000) was independently related to the good prognosis of MMD with IVH. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with MMD with IVH, the lower GCS score and higher Graeb score are independent risk factors for poor prognosis, whereas in patients with MMD with IVH, surgery treatment acts as a protective factor.

Hypocapnia Induced by Hyperventilation with Indocyanine Green Kinetics Detects the Effect of Staged Carotid Angioplasty to Avoid Hyperperfusion in Patients with Impaired Cerebral Hemodynamic Reserve. Transl Stroke Res 2021; 13:77-87. [PMID: 33959854 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-021-00911-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 04/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/20/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is a serious complication following carotid artery stenting (CAS). Staged angioplasty (AP) could potentially prevent CHS and hyperperfusion phenomenon (HPP) after revascularization. However, methods for measuring the effects of staged AP on cerebral hemodynamic reserve have not been established. Here, we evaluated whether indocyanine green kinetics and near-infrared spectroscopy (ICG-NIRS) with hypocapnia induced by hyperventilation can detect the effects of staged AP on hemodynamic reserve to prevent CHS after CAS. Participants comprised 44 patients at high risk of CHS, whose ipsilateral cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) was impaired on preoperative single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Patients were divided into a staged AP group (n=13) and a regular CAS group (n=31). In the staged AP group, stenting was performed 3 weeks after staged AP. In the regular CAS group, 16 cases (52%) showed HPP, and five (16%) presented with CHS after CAS, while no HPP or CHS occurred in the staged AP group (p=0.001). Changes in blood flow index (BFI) and time to peak (TTP) ratio during hypocapnia calculated from ICG-NIRS indicated a significant linear relationship with preprocedural CVR on SPECT (r=-0.710, 0.632, respectively; p<0.0001 each). BFI and TTP ratios during hypocapnia were significantly improved after staged AP (p<0.001 each). Furthermore, significant linear correlations were observed between BFI and TTP ratio during hypocapnia and postoperative asymmetry index AI (r=0.405, -0.475, respectively; p<0.01 each). Hypocapnia induced by hyperventilation under ICG-NIRS appears useful for detecting the effects of staged AP on hemodynamic reserve in patients at high risk of CHS.

Effects of end-tidal carbon dioxide levels in patients undergoing direct revascularization for Moyamoya disease and risk factors associated with postoperative complications. Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e24527. [PMID: 33607783 PMCID: PMC7899818 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000024527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2020] [Accepted: 01/05/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
A history of transient ischemic attack, severity of disease, urinary output, hematocrit, hypocapnia, and hypotension during direct revascularization (superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery [STA-MCA]) in patients with Moyamoya disease (MMD) may lead to a poor prognosis, however, to our knowledge evidence for end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) targets is lacking. Within the ranges of standardized treatment, the article was primarily designed to study the risk factors associated with the neurologic outcomes during STA-MCA for MMD especially including ETCO2 ranges and the duration in different groups. The primary goals of this study were to investigate the risk factors for neurologic deterioration and explore the association between ETCO2 ranges and neurologic outcome during general anesthesia for STA-MCA.This retrospective observational study included 56 consecutively adult Moyamoya patients who underwent STA-MCA under general anesthesia between January 2015 and August 2019. ETCO2 was summarized per patient every 5 minutes. Clinical outcome was assessed with clinical presentation, computed tomography findings, magnetic resonance imaging findings, cerebral angiography, and the modified Rankin Scale scores at discharge as main outcome measure. The outcomes were also compared for the duration of surgery, anesthesia, and the length of stay.A total of 56 patients were studied, all patients had comprehensive ETCO2 measurements. The incidence of postoperative complications was 44.6% (25/56). There was no association between age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, smoking history, drinking history, sevoflurane use, invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring, combined encephalomyosynangiosis and postoperative complications. Duration of surgery (P = .04), anesthesia (P = .036), hospital stay (P = .023) were significant correlates of postoperative complications. In the multiple logistic regression model, they were not the significant predictors. The ETCO2 ranges and the length of time in different groups within the current clinical setting was not associated with postoperative complications (P > .05).Within a standardized intraoperative treatment strategy, we found that postoperative complications had no significant correlation with sex, age, hypertension, diabetes, smoking history, drinking history, invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring, combined encephalomyosynangiosis, or sevoflurane use. Further, hypocapnia and hypercapnia during STA-MCA were not found to be associated with postoperative complications in patients with MMD.

Abstract
Direct bypass surgery improves blood flow in patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) as well as causes local flow relocation and disturbance. This study aimed to describe the characteristics and changes of quantitative blood flow in MMD patients. Sixty-four consecutive MMD patients (67 hemispheres) who underwent STA-MCA anastomosis between August 2013 and September 2017 were included in this study. Intraoperative blood flow of superficial temporal artery and middle cerebral artery was measured with a noninvasive, ultrasound flowprobe, before and after the bypass. All data were collected prospectively. Before the bypass, 67 hemispheres were measured and 45 hemispheres acquired post-bypass measurements. Thirty-three (49.3%) had anterograde flow and 34 (50.7%) had retrograde. Retrograde blood flow was significantly higher than anterograde blood flow in MCA-M4 section (3.71 ± 2.78 ml/min vs 2.39 ± 1.71 ml/min, P = 0.023). Thirty-eight (56.7%) patients had local cerebrovascular reactivity, whereas 29 (43.3%) lost it. After bypass, blood flow was changed into three patterns: anterograde flow (1, 2.2%), retrograde flow (3, 6.7%), and bi-direction flow (41, 91.1%). Flow of M4 was significantly improved in both proximal (13.64 ± 9.16 vs 3.28 ± 2.57, P < 0.001) and distal (7.17 ± 7.21 vs 3.28 ± 2.57, P = 0.002) sides to the bypass. Postoperative infarctions occurred in 4 (8.9%) patients. All postoperative infarctions (n = 4) happened in those patients who did not have change of flow direction in M4 section distal to the bypass (P = 0.040). Direct bypass surgery improves local blood flow after bypass surgery in both sides of the anastomosis. Flow direction was usually changed after the surgery into a bi-direction pattern: anterograde flow in M4 distal to the bypass, and retrograde flow in M4 proximal to the bypass. Proximal side acquired around 5.4 times of flow than the distal side. Patients with change of flow direction in distal M4 were related with lower risks of postoperative infarctions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is one of the most serious complications after revascularization surgery in patients with moyamoya disease (MMD). However, there are few effective measures to prevent the occurrence of CHS. OBJECTIVE The present study aims to examine the effect of the method about matching selection of donor-recipient vessels during revascularization surgery on the incidence of postoperative CHS in adult MMD patients. METHODS 216 Chinese adult patients with MMD received surgery treatment between January 2018 and December 2019 in our hospital were enrolled in this study. 191 out of 216 patients were included in this study. Matching selection method was defined as follows: (1) blood flow: the direction of blood flow and speed of the donor artery and potential receptor arteries were measured by flow 800 indocyanine green video angiography; (2) vascular diameter: the diameters of the donor artery and potential receptor arteries by a miniature ruler. Only the artery with antegrade flow and with smallest difference in flow speed and diameter with the donor artery will be selected as the receptor artery to perform anastomosis. Matching selection was performed from January 2019. Digital subtraction angiography was performed in all patients for initial MMD diagnosis. Perioperative cerebral perfusion and related clinical symptoms were monitored. Clinical characteristics, contralateral progression, and risk factors were reviewed. The incidence of CHS and the correlation of CHS with baseline characteristics or clinical conditions were analyzed. RESULTS Of these 191 patients, 82 patients received matching selection of donor-recipient vessels during revascularization surgery and 109 patients without. The postoperative CHS incidence in the matching group was 3.66%, which was much lower than that in the nonmatching group (15.60%). Multivariate analysis did not reveal a significant risk factor between the progression group and the nonprogression group. Correlation analysis revealed only the matching selection method was significantly associated with the reduced postoperative CHS incidence in MMD patients. CONCLUSIONS The matching selection of donor-recipient vessels during revascularization surgery effectively reduces the incidence of postoperative CHS in adult patients with MMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In nonsurgical adult moyamoya disease (MMD) patients with ischemic onset and stable hemodynamics, the cerebral hemodynamic and cognitive course remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To clarify, through a prospective cohort study, 2-yr clinical, cerebral hemodynamic, and cognitive outcomes of adult patients receiving medication alone for symptomatically ischemic MMD without cerebral misery perfusion. METHODS Seventy patients without cerebral misery perfusion on the first 15O gas positron emission tomography (PET) were clinically followed up for 2 yr. The second PET was performed at the end of the 2-yr follow-up. Neuropsychological tests were also performed at the study entry and the end of the 2-yr follow-up. RESULTS During the 2-yr follow-up period, 2 patients (3%) developed further cerebral ischemic symptoms and showed new cerebral misery perfusion on PET performed at recurrence. None of the 68 patients without further ischemic symptoms showed cerebral misery perfusion on second PET. All 66 patients who underwent the first and second neuropsychological tests displayed unchanged interval cognition at the 2-yr follow-up. CONCLUSION Among adult patients receiving medication alone for symptomatically ischemic MMD without cerebral misery perfusion, the incidence of recurrent ischemic events was 3% per 2 yr. In patients without recurrent ischemic events, cerebral hemodynamics and cognitive function had not deteriorated by 2 yr after the last event.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review overviews perioperative stroke as it pertains to specific surgical procedures. RECENT FINDINGS As awareness of perioperative stroke increases, so does the opportunity to potentially improve outcomes for these patients by early stroke recognition and intervention. Perioperative stroke is defined to be any stroke that occurs within 30 days of the initial surgical procedure. The incidence of perioperative stroke varies and is dependent on the specific type of surgery performed. This chapter overviews the risks, mechanisms, and acute evaluation and management of perioperative stroke in four surgical populations: cardiac surgery, carotid endarterectomy, neurosurgery, and non-cardiac/non-carotid/non-neurological surgeries.

Abstract
Aims This study investigated the safety and efficacy of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) on ameliorating the sequelae of ischemic moyamoya disease (iMMD). Methods A total of 30 iMMD patients underwent long‐term RIC and were followed up at 0.5, 1, and 2 years for clinical outcomes, including frequency of stroke recurrence, Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) scale, peak systolic velocities (PSV), and cerebral perfusion. Results During the whole RIC treatment process, no RIC‐related adverse event occurred. Only one of 30 patients suffered a onetime infarction (3.3%), and the ratios of acceptable PGIC were 88.2%, 64.3%, and 92.3% at 0.5, 1, and 2 years follow‐up. Kaplan‐Meier analysis showed the frequency of stroke recurrence was significantly reduced after RIC (P = .013). The frequency of TIA per week was 1.1 (0.6, 2.8) prior to RIC and 0.1 (0.0, 0.5) post‐RIC (P < .01). Compared to baseline, PSV values were significantly reduced after RIC treatment (P = .002 at 0.5, P = .331 at 1, and P = .006 at 2 years). In patients undergoing perfusion studies, 75% obtained improvement on followed‐up SPECT and 95% on followed‐up PET maps. Conclusions Remote ischemic conditioning may be beneficial on controlling iMMD‐induced ischemic events, relieving symptoms, and improving cerebral perfusion, without incidence of complications in this case series.

Simultaneous PET-MRI imaging of cerebral blood flow and glucose metabolism in the symptomatic unilateral internal carotid artery/middle cerebral artery steno-occlusive disease. Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 2019; 47:1668-1677.

Abstract
Purpose Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and glucose metabolism are important and significant factors in ischaemic cerebrovascular disease. The objective of this study was to use quantitative hybrid PET/MR to evaluate the effects of surgery treatment on the symptomatic unilateral internal carotid artery/middle cerebral artery steno-occlusive disease. Methods Fifteen patients diagnosed with ischaemic cerebrovascular disease were evaluated using a hybrid TOF PET/MR system (Signa, GE Healthcare). The CBF value measured by arterial spin labelling (ASL) and the standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) measured by 18F-FDG PET were obtained, except for the infarct area and its contralateral side, before and after bypass surgery. The asymmetry index (AI) was calculated from the CBF and SUVR of the ipsilateral and contralateral cerebral hemispheres, respectively. The ΔCBF and ΔSUVR were calculated as the percent changes of CBF and SUVR between before and after surgery, and paired t tests were used to determine whether a significant change occurred. Spearman’s rank correlation was also used to compare CBF with glucose metabolism in the same region. Results The analysis primarily revealed that after bypass surgery, a statistically significant increase occurred in the CBF on the affected side (P < 0.01). The postprocedural SUVR was not significantly higher than the preprocedural SUVR (P > 0.05). However, the postprocedural AI values for CBF and SUVR were significantly lower after surgery than before surgery (P < 0.01). A significant correlation was found between the AI values for preoperative CBF and SUVR on the ipsilateral hemisphere (P < 0.01). Conclusions The present study demonstrates that a combination of ASL and 18F-FDG PET could be used to simultaneously analyse changes in patients’ cerebral haemodynamic patterns and metabolism between before and after superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass surgery. This therefore represents an essential tool for the evaluation of critical haemodynamic and metabolic status in patients with symptomatic unilateral ischaemic cerebrovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoxic but viable neural tissue is seen on 1-(2-18F-fluoro-1-[hydroxymethyl]ethoxy) methyl-2-nitroimidazole (18F-FRP170) positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with chronic cerebral ischemia with a combination of misery perfusion and moderately reduced oxygen metabolism. Cognitive function sometimes improves after revascularization surgery in patients with chronic cerebral ischemia. OBJECTIVES We used brain perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and 18F-FRP170 PET to determine whether hypoxic tissue was reduced following the restoration of cerebral perfusion after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in patients with severe stenosis of the cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) and whether the reduction in hypoxic tissue was associated with cognitive improvement. METHOD Eighteen patients with abnormally reduced cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the affected cerebral hemispheres on preoperative brain perfusion SPECT -underwent CEA. They underwent 18F-FRP170 PET and neuropsychological tests preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively. Brain perfusion SPECT was also performed 6 months postoperatively. Regions of interest were placed in the bilateral middle cerebral artery territories on SPECT and PET images, and the ratio of values in the affected versus contralateral hemispheres was calculated. RESULTS The CBF ratio (p = 0.0006) and 18F-FRP170 ratio (p = 0.0084) were significantly increased and reduced, respectively, after surgery compared to the corresponding ratios before surgery. The difference in the 18F-FRP170 ratio (postoperative - preoperative value) was negatively correlated with the difference in the CBF ratio (ρ = -0.695; p = 0.0009). The difference in the 18F-FRP170 ratio was significantly lower in patients with postoperative improved cognition compared to that in those without (p = 0.0007). The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve for the difference in the 18F-FRP170 ratio for detecting postoperative improved cognition was significantly greater than that for the difference in the CBF ratio (difference between areas, 0.278; p = 0.0248). CONCLUSIONS Hypoxic tissue is reduced following the restoration of cerebral perfusion with revascularization surgery in patients with severe atherosclerotic stenosis of the cervical ICA. The reduction in hypoxic tissue is associated with cognitive improvement in such patients.
