Abstract
Objective
To explore the value of color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) to predict preoperatively and evaluate postoperatively the collateral development of two common revascularizations in patients with moyamoya disease (MMD).
Methods
We prospectively enrolled 49 patients with MMD who underwent unilateral superficial temporal artery (STA) -middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis or encephalo-duro-arterio-synangiosis (EDAS). The parameters of the extracranial arteries, including STA, internal carotid artery (ICA), external carotid artery (ECA), and vertebral artery (VA), were performed before and at 3–6 months after surgery. DSA results were used to assess surgical collateral development.
Results
To predict good collateral development before STA-MCA anastomosis, the preoperative D > 1.75 mm in the STA had the highest area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUC). To predict good collateral development before EDAS, the preoperative EDV > 12.00 cm/s in the STA had the highest AUC. To evaluate the good collateral development after STA-MCA anastomosis, the postoperative EDV > 16.50 cm/s in the STA had the highest AUC. To evaluate the good collateral development after EDAS, an increase of D of 0.15 mm in the STA had the highest AUC. Logistic regression analysis showed that the preoperative RI and EDV in the STA were highly correlated with collateral development. Besides, the preoperative RI was an independent risk factor for collateral development.
Conclusion
CDU could predict preoperatively and evaluate postoperatively the collateral development of STA-MCA anastomosis and EDAS surgery postoperatively by detecting ultrasound parameters of the STA.
