Eun J, Park IS. Early Detection of hyperemia with Magnetic Resonance Fluid Attenuation Inversion Recovery Imaging after Superficial Temporal Artery to Middle Cerebral Artery Anastomosis. J Korean Neurosurg Soc 2024; 67:442-450. [PMID: 37984963 PMCID: PMC11220419 DOI: 10.3340/jkns.2023.0183] [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: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) manifests as a collection of symptoms brought on by heightened focal cerebral blood flow (CBF), afflicting nearly 30% of patients who have undergone superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the amalgamation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) imaging via MRI can discern cerebral hyperemia after STA-MCA anastomosis surgery. METHODS A retrospective study was performed of patients who underwent STA-MCA anastomosis due to Moyamoya disease or atherosclerotic steno-occlusive disease. A protocol aimed at preventing CHS was instituted, leveraging the use of MRI FLAIR. Patients underwent MRI diffusion with FLAIR imaging 24 hours after STA-MCA anastomosis. A high signal on FLAIR images signified the presence of hyperemia at the bypass site, triggering a protocol of hyperemia care. All patients underwent hemodynamic evaluations, including perfusion MRI, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and digital subtraction angiography, both before and after the surgery. If a high signal intensity is observed on MRI FLAIR within 24 hours of the surgery, a repeat MRI is performed to confirm the presence of hyperemia. Patients with confirmed hyperemia are managed according to a protocol aimed at preventing further progression. RESULTS Out of a total of 162 patients, 24 individuals (comprising 16 women and 8 men) exhibited hyperemia on their MRI FLAIR scans following the procedure. SPECT was conducted on 23 patients, and 11 of them yielded positive results. All 24 patients underwent perfusion MRI, but nine of them showed no significant findings. Among the patients, 10 displayed elevations in both CBF and cerebral blood volume (CBV), three only showed elevation in CBF, and two only showed elevation in CBV. Follow-up MRI FLAIR scans conducted 6 months later on these patients revealed complete normalization of the previously observed high signal intensity, with no evidence of ischemic injury. CONCLUSION The study determined that the use of MRI FLAIR and ADC mapping is a competent means of early detection of hyperemia after STA-MCA anastomosis surgery. The protocol established can be adopted by other neurosurgical institutions to enhance patient outcomes and mitigate the hazard of permanent cerebral injury caused by cerebral hyperemia.

Abstract
Little has been reported about the association between cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) and blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption in human. We aimed to investigate the changes in permeability after bypass surgery in cerebrovascular steno-occlusive diseases using dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and to demonstrate the association between CHS and BBB disruption. This retrospective study included 36 patients (21 hemispheres in 18 CHS patients and 20 hemispheres in 18 controls) who underwent combined bypass surgery for moyamoya and atherosclerotic steno-occlusive diseases. DCE-MRI and arterial spin labeling perfusion-weighted imaging (ASL-PWI) were obtained at the baseline, postoperative state, and discharge. Perfusion and permeability parameters were calculated at the MCA territory (CBF(territorial), Ktrans(territorial), Vp(territorial)) and focal perianastomotic area (CBF(focal), Ktrans(focal), Vp(focal)) of operated hemispheres. As compared with the baseline, both CBF(territorial) and CBF(focal) increased in the postoperative period and decreased at discharge, corresponding well to symptoms in the CHS group. Vp(focal) was lower in the postoperative period and at discharge, as compared with the baseline. In the control group, no parameters significantly differed among the three points. In conclusion, Vp at the focal perianastomotic area significantly decreased in patients with CHS during the postoperative period. BBB disruption may be implicated in the development of CHS after bypass surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare and complex cerebrovascular disorder that is diagnosed through imaging studies, such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imagin, which show progressive narrowing of the terminal portion of the internal carotid arteries and the development of compensatory capillary collaterals. The objective of our study was to identify and clarify the predictive factors for seizures in patients with MMD. METHODS From January 2019 to March 2023, a total of 102 patients with MMD were enrolled in this study. Ten patients with seizures after surgery as the main presentation were included. Patients with epilepsy were compared to those without epilepsy in terms of their clinical characteristics. Multivariable analysis was applied to determine factors linked with postoperative seizures. RESULTS Ten patients developed seizures after revascularization for MMD. Logistic regression analysis revealed that early seizure (odds ratio [OR], 0.068; 95% CI, 0.014-0.342; P = 0.001), cortical involvement (OR, 9.593; 95% CI, 2.256-40.783; P = 0.002), and postoperative hyperperfusion (OR, 7.417; 95% CI, 1.077-51.093; P = 0.042) were significantly associated with seizures. In a multivariate analysis, it was found that early seizures were significantly associated with a higher likelihood of experiencing seizures (OR, 5.88; 95% CI, 1.01-33.96; P = 0.048), while patients who had seizures were more likely to have cortical involvement (OR, 8.90; 95% CI, 1.55-50.96; P = 0.014) or postoperative hyperperfusion (OR, 12.44; 95% CI, 1.21-127.74; P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS Epilepsy in patients with MMD link with several clinical factors. In patients with MMD who undergo bypass surgery, early seizures, cortical involvement, and postoperative hyperperfusion are significant independent predictive factors for the development of epilepsy.

Front Neurol 2023; 14:1241760. [PMID: 37909032 PMCID: PMC10613996 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1241760] [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: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass surgery is the main treatment approach to moyamoya disease, and an accurate assessment of the patency of anastomosis is critical for successful surgery. So far, the most common way to do this is the intraoperative intravenous indocyanine green (ICG) video-angiography. Intra-arterial ICG-VA has been applied to treat peripheral cerebral aneurysms, spinal arteriovenous fistulas, and dural arteriovenous fistulas, but few reports have concerned the use of arterial injection of ICG to evaluate anastomotic patency. This research aims to explore the feasibility and effects of catheter-guided superficial temporal artery injection of ICG in the evaluation of anastomotic patency after bypass surgery. Methods In this study, 20 patients with moyamoya disease or syndrome who underwent bypass surgery were divided into two groups, one who received intravenous ICG angiography and the other who received intra-arterial ICG angiography, to compare the two injection methods for vascular anastomosis patency. We conducted conventional intraoperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in a hybrid operating room during extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass surgery, including the additional step of injecting ICG into the main trunk of the superficial temporal artery (STA) through a catheter. Results Intra-arterial injection of indocyanine green video-angiography (ICG-VA) indicated good patency of the vascular anastomosis when compared with conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and intravenous ICG-VA, confirming the feasibility of using the arterial injection of ICG for assessing anastomotic patency. And intra-arterial ICG-VA results in faster visualization than intravenous ICG-VA (p < 0.05). Besides, ICG-VA through arterial injection provided valuable information on the vascular blood flow direction after the bypass surgery, and allowed for visual inspection of the range of cortical brain supply from the superficial temporal artery and venous return from the cortex. Moreover, arterial injection of ICG offered a rapid dye washout effect, reducing the repeat imaging time. Conclusion This study indicates that intra-arterial ICG-VA has good effects in observing the direction of blood flow in blood vessels and the range of cortical brain supply from the STA, which reflects blood flow near the anastomosis and provides additional information that may allow the postoperative prediction of cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome. However, the procedure of intra-arterial ICG-VA is relatively complicated compared to intravenous ICG-VA.

Abstract
Objective. The search for methods by which to predict the risks of cerebral hyperperfusion syn-drome (CHS) in adults with moyamoya disease (MMD), including those utilizing new biomarkers, still deserves further research. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between the hemodynamics of parasylvian cortical arteries (PSCAs) and postoperative CHS. Methods. A consecutive number of adults with MMD who had undergone direct bypass between September 2020 and December 2022 were recruited. Intraoperative microvascular doppler ultrasonography (MDU) was performed to evaluate the hemodynamics of PSCAs. The intraoperative flow direction, mean value of velocity (MVV) of recipient artery (RA) and bypass graft were recorded. According to flow direction after bypass, RA was divided into entering sylvian (RA.ES) and leaving sylvian (RA.LS) subtypes. Univariate, multivariate, and ROC analyses of the risk factors for postoperative CHS were performed. Results. A total of 16 (15.09%) cases in 106 consecutive hemispheres (101 patients) sat-isfied the postoperative CHS criteria. According to univariate analysis, advanced Suzuki stage, MVV of RA before bypass, and fold increase of MVV in RA.ES after bypass were significantly associated with postoperative CHS (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that left-operated hemisphere (OR (95%CI), 4.58 (1.05-19.97), p = 0.043), advanced Suzuki stage (OR (95%CI), 5.47 (1.99-15.05), p = 0.017), and fold increase of MVV in RA.ES (OR (95%CI), 1.17 (1.06-1.30), p = 0.003) were statistically significantly associated with the occurrence of CHS. The cut-off value of fold increase of MVV in RA.ES was 2.7-fold (p < 0.05). Conclusions. Left-operated hemisphere, advanced Suzuki stage, and postoperative fold increase of MVV in RA.ES were potential risk factors for postoperative CHS. Intraoperative MDU was useful for evaluating hemodynamics and predicting CHS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the incidence, risk factors, and clinical prognosis of cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis combined with encephalo-duro-arterio-synangiosis (STA-MCA/EDAS) in adult patients with moyamoya disease (MMD). METHODS The clinical data of 160 adult patients with MMD treated by STA-MCA/EDAS from January 2016 to January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to CHS diagnosis, MMD patients were divided into CHS and non-CHS group. Univariate and multivariate analysis of risk factors and Kaplan-Meier curve of stroke-free survival for CHS were performed. RESULTS A total of 12 patients (7.5%) developed postoperative CHS, of which 4 patients (2.5%) presented with cerebral hemorrhage. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed moyamoya vessel on the surgical hemisphere (OR = 3.04, 95% CI = 1.02-9.03, P = 0.046) and left operated hemisphere (OR = 5.16, 95% CI = 1.09-21.34, P = 0.041) were independent risk factors for CHS. The other variables, such as age, gender, presentation, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, mean mRS score on admission, modified Suzuki stage and pre-infarction stage on surgical hemisphere, and bypass patency, had no association with postoperative CHS (P > 0.05). At final follow-up with average 38 months, there were 18 out of 133 patients (13.5%, 4.91% per person year) presented with newly developed complications. There was no significant difference between newly developed complications, mean mRS scores, and Kaplan-Meier curve of stroke-free survival in patients with and without CHS (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The concentration of moyamoya vessels and left operated hemisphere was independent risk factors for CHS, which could not affect the clinical prognosis if treated timely and properly. The current study offers a new perspective of moyamoya vessels and supporting data for choosing MMD candidates on cerebral revascularization.

Efficacy assessment of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery in treating moyamoya disease from a hemodynamic perspective: a pilot study using computational modeling and perfusion imaging. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2023; 165:613-623. [PMID: 36595057 DOI: 10.1007/s00701-022-05455-9] [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: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass is a common surgery in treating moyamoya disease (MMD) with occluded MCA. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation might provide a simple, non-invasive, and low-cost tool to evaluate the efficacy of STA-MCA surgery. AIM We aim to quantitatively investigate the treatment efficacy of STA-MCA surgery in improving the blood flow of MMD patients using CFD simulation. METHODS This retrospective study included 11 MMD patients with occlusion around proximal MCA who underwent STA-MCA bypass surgery. CFD simulation was performed using patient-specific blood pressure and postoperative artery geometry. The volumetric flow rates of STA and the bypass, average flow velocity in the proximal segment of transcranial bypass, transcranial pressure drop, and transcranial flow resistance were measured and compared with a postoperative increment of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in MCA territories derived from perfusion imaging. Per-branch pressure drop from model inlet to bypass branch outlet was calculated. RESULTS The volumetric flow rates of STA and the bypass were 80.84 ± 14.54 mL/min and 46.03 ± 4.21 mL/min. Average flow velocity in proximal bypass, transcranial pressure drop, and transcranial flow resistance were 0.19 ± 0.07 m/s, 3.72 ± 3.10 mmHg, and 6.54 ± 5.65 10-8 Pa s m-3. Postoperative mean increment of CBF in MCA territories was 16.03 ± 11.72 mL·100 g-1·min-1. Per-branch pressure drop was 10.96 ± 5.59 mmHg and 7.26 ± 4.25 mmHg in branches with and without stenosis. CONCLUSIONS CFD simulation results are consistent with CBF observation in verifying the efficacy of STA-MCA bypass, where postoperative stenosis may influence the hemodynamics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the risk factors for early seizure after revascularization in patients with moyamoya disease (MMD). METHODS A total of 298 patients with MMD diagnosed in our hospital from 2015 to 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. We summarized the characteristics of seizure after revascularization in patients with MMD and analyzed the predictors of early postoperative seizure. RESULTS We identified 15 patients with MMD who developed seizures within 1 week after revascularization. According to logistic regression analysis, age (OR: 1.04, 95% CI 0.998-1.086; P = 0.060) and infarct side (OR: 1.92, 95% CI 0.856-4.290; P = 0.113) were not significantly associated with incident early seizure. Postoperative infarction (OR: 12.89, 95% CI 4.198-39.525; P = 0.000) and preoperative cerebral infarction (OR: 4.08, 95% CI 1.267-13.119; P = 0.018) were confirmed as risk factors for early seizure. CONCLUSIONS We believe that a history of preoperative infarction and new infarction are independent risk factors of early seizure in patients with MMD after revascularization.

Timing of Revascularization in Ischemic Moyamoya Disease: Association of Early Versus Delayed Surgery with Perioperative and Long-Term Outcomes. World Neurosurg 2022; 166:e721-e730. [PMID: 35931338 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2022.07.090] [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: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 07/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with nmoyamoya disease (MMD) who present primarily with ischemic stroke are known to have greater rates of perioperative strokes as compared with those who present with nonstroke symptoms. The optimal timing for revascularization for these patients remains unclear. METHODS From 1994 to 2015, 91 patients with MMD presented with signs and symptoms of an acute ischemic stroke with diffusion restriction correlate on magnetic resonance imaging, and these patients were subdivided into those who underwent early revascularization (<90 days from last stroke), versus those who underwent delayed revascularization (≥90 days after last stroke), based on evidence that most neurological recovery after stroke occurs during the first three months. Perioperative and long-term outcomes were compared between the 2 surgical cohorts. RESULTS In total, 27 patients underwent early revascularization, and 64 patients underwent delayed revascularization. Patients who underwent early revascularization had a statistically greater rate of perioperative stroke (P = 0.04) and perioperative mortality (P = 0.03), and overall complication rate (P = 0.049). At last follow-up of 5.2 ± 4.3 years, patients who underwent delayed revascularization had a lower mortality rate (P = 0.01) and a lower overall postoperative stroke incidence (P = 0.002). As a function of time, patients with MMD undergoing delayed revascularization had a statistically higher length of stroke-free survival (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Patients with MMD who present with ischemic stroke are more likely to have perioperative strokes, overall perioperative complications, worse long-term mortality rates, and lower rates of stroke-free survival if revascularization surgery occurred within 90 days of last stroke.

Angiographic Characteristics of Cerebral Perfusion and Hemodynamics of the Bridging Artery After Surgical Treatment of Unilateral Moyamoya Disease. Front Neurosci 2022; 16:922482. [PMID: 35774553 PMCID: PMC9239480 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.922482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the characteristics of cerebral perfusion and hemodynamics of bypass grafting in the treatment of moyamoya disease (MMD) using the iFlow color-coded flow map in comparison with magnetic resonance imaging–perfusion-weighted imaging (MRI–PWI) and computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis. Materials and Methods Patients with MMD treated with bypass grafting who had undergone MRI PWI and digital subtraction angiography for iFlow color-coded map was retrospectively enrolled and CFD was performed for calculating the hemodynamic stresses around the bypass grafting. Results Forty-five patients with unilateral MMD treated with bypass surgery were enrolled. The bypass surgery was successful in all patients, with no severe neurological complications during the periprocedural period. Followed up for 4–12 months (median 5.5), the neurological function was good in all patients. The cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), mean transit time (MTT), and time to peak (TTP) were significantly (p < 0.05) improved in the middle cerebral artery distribution area on the surgical side before and after vascular bypass, and the difference of TTP (s) measured from the proximal bifurcation of common carotid artery to the confluence of sinus was also significant (p < 0.05). A significant (p < 0.05) positive correlation existed in the perfusion parameters between the iFlow blood perfusion and the MRI–PWI perfusion, with r-value for TTP of 0.765 (p < 0.01). The iFlow color-coded blood flow map showed warm color changes on the diseased side, similar to those on the contralateral side. In CFD analysis, the hemodynamic stresses were all improved, in and around the bypass grafting and distal vessels, which were beneficial to blood flow entering distal arterial branches. Conclusion The iFlow color-coded flow map can be used to analyze cerebral perfusion after bypass grafting for MMD, similar to MRI–PWI, and CFD can be used to analyze the hemodynamics after bypass grafting, revealing improved hemodynamics to promote blood flow entering distal arteries.

Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Magnetic Resonance Imaging Used in Preoperative Screening of High-Risk Patients With Moyamoya Disease Who May Develop Postoperative Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome. Front Neurosci 2022; 16:826021. [PMID: 35310102 PMCID: PMC8924456 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.826021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of preoperative intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MRI for the screening of high-risk patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) who may develop postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS). Methods This study composed of two parts. In the first part 24 MMD patients and 24 control volunteers were enrolled. IVIM-MRI was performed. The relative pseudo-diffusion coefficient, perfusion fraction, apparent diffusion coefficient, and diffusion coefficient (rD*, rf, rADC, and rD) values of the IVIM sequence were compared according to hemispheres between MMD patient and healthy control groups. In the second part, 98 adult patients (124 operated hemispheres) with MMD who underwent surgery were included. Preoperative IVIM-MRI was performed. The rD*, rf, rADC, rD, and rfD* values of the IVIM sequence were calculated and analyzed. Operated hemispheres were divided into CHS and non-CHS groups. Patients’ age, sex, Matsushima type, Suzuki stage, and IVIM-MRI examination results were compared between CHS and non-CHS groups. Results Only the rf value was significantly higher in the healthy control group than in the MMD group (P < 0.05). Out of 124 operated hemispheres, 27 were assigned to the CHS group. Patients with clinical presentation of Matsushima types I–V were more likely to develop CHS after surgery (P < 0.05). The rf values of the ipsilateral hemisphere were significantly higher in the CHS group than in the non-CHS group (P < 0.05). The rfD* values of the ACA and MCA supply areas of the ipsilateral hemisphere were significantly higher in the CHS group than in the non-CHS group (P < 0.05). Only the rf value of the anterior cerebral artery supply area in the contralateral hemisphere was higher in the CHS group than in the non-CHS group (P < 0.05). The rf values of the middle and posterior cerebral artery supply areas and the rD, rD*, and rADC values of the both hemispheres were not significantly different between the CHS and non-CHS groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Preoperative non-invasive IVIM-MRI analysis, particularly the f-value of the ipsilateral hemisphere, may be helpful in predicting CHS in adult patients with MMD after surgery. MMD patients with ischemic onset symptoms are more likely to develop CHS after surgery.

Abstract
Moyamoya angiopathy (MMA) is a peculiar cerebrovascular condition characterized by progressive steno-occlusion of the terminal part of the internal carotid arteries (ICAs) and their proximal branches, associated with the development of a network of fragile collateral vessels at the base of the brain. The diagnosis is essentially made by radiological angiographic techniques. MMA is often idiopathic (moyamoya disease-MMD); conversely, it can be associated with acquired or hereditary conditions (moyamoya Syndrome-MMS); however, the pathophysiology underlying either MMD or MMS has not been fully elucidated to date, and this poor knowledge reflects uncertainties and heterogeneity in patient management. MMD and MMS also have similar clinical expressions, including, above all, ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, then headaches, seizures, cognitive impairment, and movement disorders. The available treatment strategies are currently shared between idiopathic MMD and MMS, including pharmacological and surgical stroke prevention treatments and symptomatic drugs. No pharmacological treatment able to reverse the progressive disappearance of the ICAs has been found to date in both idiopathic and syndromic cases. Antithrombotic agents are usually prescribed in ischemic MMA, although the coexisting hemorrhagic risk should be considered. Surgical revascularization techniques, which are currently the best available treatment in symptomatic MMA, are associated with good long-term outcomes and reduced ischemic and hemorrhagic risks. Given the lack of dedicated randomized clinical trials, current treatment is mainly based on observational studies and physicians’ and surgeons’ expertise.

Abstract
Background Ischemic events are the most common postoperative complication in bypass surgery for moyamoya disease (MMD), but the risk factors for pediatric MMD remain unclear. The goal of the study was to investigate the risk factors for postoperative ischemic complications in pediatric MMD patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of pediatric MMD cases at Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2010 through June 2019. Preoperative clinical variables and radiographic findings were recorded, and logistic regression analysis was carried out to identify the risk factors for postoperative ischemic events. Results A total of 533 operations in 336 patients were included in this study. Postoperative complications occurred after 51 operations (9.6%), including 40/447 indirect bypass procedures, 9/70 direct bypass procedures, and 2/16 combined bypass procedures. Postoperative ischemic events were the most common complication and occurred in 30 patients after 31 procedures (8.9% per patient; 5.8% per operation), including 26/447 indirect bypass procedures, 4/70 direct bypass procedures, and 1/16 combined bypass procedures, and the incidence of these events did not differ significantly between indirect and non-indirect bypass (5.8% vs 5.8%; p = 0.999). Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that older age at operation (OR 1.129, 95% CI 1.011–1.260, p = 0.032) and posterior cerebral artery involvement (OR 2.587, 95% CI 1.030–6.496, p = 0.043) were significantly associated with postoperative ischemic events. Conclusion We speculate that older age at operation and posterior cerebral artery involvement are risk factors for postoperative ischemic events in pediatric MMD patients.

Preoperative platelet count may predict postoperative symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome after superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis in moyamoya patients. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2020; 199:106260.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Platelets play a critical role in the inflammatory response, accompanied by microvascular endothelial dysfunction, underlying postoperative symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (PSCHS) after superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis in moyamoya patients. We examined whether the preoperative platelet count can predict PSCHS after STA-MCA anastomosis in such patients. METHODS In 160 adult moyamoya patients undergoing 186 STA-MCA anastomoses, preoperative (demographics, initial clinical manifestation, and Suzuki grade), intraoperative (surgical time, operative side, fluid balance, and maximum and minimum mean blood pressure before and after vessel anastomosis), immediate postoperative (APACHE 2 score), and laboratory (hemoglobin and C-reactive protein levels and white blood cell and platelet counts) data were collected retrospectively. RESULTS 84 patients (90 sides, 48.4 %) developed PSCHS with a median(IQR) onset of postoperative day 1(0-3) and duration of 4(3-7) days. The preoperative (25.2[22.8-28.0] vs. 23.1[19.7-26.2] ×104/μL, p = 0.009) platelet count was significantly higher in patients with PSCHS than in those without. The preoperative platelet count (odds ratio[95 % confidence interval], 1.14[1.03-1.27], p = 0.011), operation on the dominant hemisphere (6.84 [3.26-14.36], p < 0.001), and negative fluid balance (2.41[1.04-5.59], p = 0.040) were significant independent predictors of PSCHS. The optimal cut-off value for preoperative platelet count was 22.7 ×104/μL, and PSCHS developed more frequently in cases with a preoperative platelet count ≥ 22.7 × 104/μL (2.90[1.54-5.45]; p = 0.001). CONCLUSION A high preoperative platelet count may be associated with the development of PSCHS after STA-MCA anastomosis in adult moyamoya patients.

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
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
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
OBJECTIVE To investigate potential risk factors for cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after surgery in patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) using phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS The study included 84 adult patients (89 brain hemispheres) with MMD who underwent surgery. Preoperative phase-contrast MRI scans were performed for all patients. Peak velocity, average velocity, average flow, forward volume, and region of interest area of the bilateral internal and external carotid arteries, superficial temporal artery, and vertebral artery were calculated and analyzed. Patients were divided into CHS and non-CHS groups. Patients' age, sex, clinical symptoms, Suzuki stage, and MRI flow examination results were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS Nineteen of 84 patients (89 hemispheres) with MMD were in the CHS group. Patients with ischemic onset symptoms were more likely to develop CHS after surgery (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in age, sex, and Suzuki stage between the 2 groups. For surgery ipsilateral vessels, peak velocity, average flow and forward volume of superficial temporal artery and average flow of external carotid artery and region of interest area of internal carotid artery in the CHS group were significantly lower compared with the non-CHS group (P < 0.05). For surgery contralateral vessels, forward volume of superficial temporal artery and external carotid artery in the CHS group was significantly lower compared with the non-CHS group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patients with MMD and ischemic onset symptoms are more likely to develop CHS after surgery. Preoperative phase-contrast MRI analysis may be helpful to predict CHS in patients with MMD after surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The risk factors and clinical significance of postoperative complications in moyamoya disease are still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the predictors of postoperative complications in moyamoya disease and examine the impact of complications on outcomes. METHODS The authors reviewed consecutive cases involving adult moyamoya disease patients who underwent indirect, direct, or combined bypass surgery in their hospital between 2009 and 2015. Preoperative clinical characteristics and radiographic features were recorded. Postoperative complications within 14 days after surgery were examined. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for either postoperative ischemia or postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion. Outcome data, including recurrent strokes and neurological status (modified Rankin Scale [mRS]) during follow-up, were collected. Outcomes were compared between patients who had complications with those without complications, using propensity-score analysis to account for between-group differences in baseline characteristics. RESULTS A total of 500 patients (610 hemispheres) were included in this study. Postoperative complications were observed in 74 operations (12.1%), including new postoperative ischemia in 30 cases (4.9%), hyperperfusion in 27 (4.4%), impaired wound healing in 12 (2.0%), and subdural effusion in 6 (1.0%). The complication rates for different surgery types were as follows: 12.6% (n = 25) for indirect bypass, 12.7% (n = 37) for direct bypass, and 10.0% (n = 12) for combined bypass (p = 0.726). Postoperative ischemic complications occurred in 30 hemispheres (4.9%) in 30 different patients, and postoperative symptomatic hyperperfusion occurred after 27 procedures (4.4%). Advanced Suzuki stage (OR 1.669, 95% CI 1.059-2.632, p = 0.027) and preoperative ischemic presentation (OR 5.845, 95% CI 1.654-20.653, p = 0.006) were significantly associated with postoperative ischemia. Preoperative ischemic presentation (OR 5.73, 95% CI 1.27-25.88, p = 0.023) and admission modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score (OR 1.81, 95% CI 1.06-3.10, p = 0.031) were significantly associated with symptomatic postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS). Compared with patients without postoperative complications, patients who experienced any postoperative complications had longer hospital stays and worse mRS scores at discharge (both p < 0.0001). At the final follow-up, no significant differences in functional disability (mRS score 3-6, 11.9% vs 4.5%, p = 0.116) and future stroke events (p = 0.513) between the 2 groups were detected. CONCLUSIONS Advanced Suzuki stage and preoperative ischemic presentation were independent risk factors for postoperative ischemia; the mRS score on admission and preoperative ischemic presentation were independently associated with postoperative CHS. Although patients with postoperative complications had worse neurological status at discharge, postoperative complications had no associations with future stroke events or functional disability during follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE One feature that patients with steno-occlusive cerebrovascular disease have in common is the presence of white matter (WM) lesions on MRI. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of direct surgical revascularization on impaired WM cerebrovascular reactivity in patients with steno-occlusive disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS We recruited 35 patients with steno-occlusive disease, Moyamoya disease (n = 24), Moyamoya syndrome (n = 3), atherosclerosis (n = 6), vasculitis (n = 1), and idiopathic stenosis (n = 1), who underwent unilateral brain revascularization using a direct superficial temporal artery-to-MCA bypass (19 women; mean age, 45.8 ± 16.5 years). WM cerebrovascular reactivity was measured preoperatively and postoperatively using blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) MR imaging during iso-oxic hypercapnic changes in end-tidal carbon dioxide and was expressed as %Δ BOLD MR signal intensity per millimeter end-tidal partial pressure of CO2. RESULTS WM cerebrovascular reactivity significantly improved after direct unilateral superficial temporal artery-to-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass in the revascularized hemisphere in the MCA territory (mean ± SD, -0.0005 ± 0.053 to 0.053 ± 0.046 %BOLD/mm Hg; P < .0001) and in the anterior cerebral artery territory (mean, 0.0015 ± 0.059 to 0.021 ± 0.052 %BOLD/mm Hg; P = .005). There was no difference in WM cerebrovascular reactivity in the ipsilateral posterior cerebral artery territory nor in the vascular territories of the nonrevascularized hemisphere (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Cerebral revascularization surgery is an effective treatment for reversing preoperative cerebrovascular reactivity deficits in WM. In addition, direct-STA-MCA bypass may prevent recurrence of preoperative symptoms.

Abstract
ASL (Arterial Spin Labeling) – a novel modality of MR angiography – is based on radio-frequency labeling of aqueous protons in the arterial blood; the method is used to monitor blood supply to organs, including the brain. So far there has been little information on the use of ASL in children with focal epilepsy, especially in the pre-surgery period.Aim:to evaluate the perfusion patterns in seizure-free children with drug resistant focal epilepsy (FE) using the ASL mode of MRI.Materials and methods.We studied the ASL data of 54 (23-boys/31 girls) patients with FE treated in the Dpt. of Neurology at the Russian State Children Hospital from 2015 to 2018. The patients’ age varied from 4 months to 17 years. All images were produced with a 3T GE Discovery 750W system.Results. We found several brain perfusion patterns in children with FE; among other factors, those patterns depended on the clinical status of the patient, i. e. the interictal period or the early post- seizure period. The main pattern of the interictal period was characterized by a focal decrease in perfusion located around a structural focus identified on MRI scans. In the early post-seizure period, there was an increase in the arterial perfusion in the area of a structural epileptogenic lesion.Conclusion.ASL-MRI is an effective diagnostic method providing more information on children with FE during their pre-surgery phase. The ASL modality needs further research to rationalize its wider use as a preferred diagnostic tool or as a combination with the more complex PET and SPECT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracranial hemorrhage, such as intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), is an extremely rare complication after surgical revascularization for moyamoya disease (MMD). However, the incidence, timing, prognosis, possible mechanism, and prevention are not well known. METHODS Adult patients with MMD who underwent direct bypass or combined bypass and experienced ICH, SAH, or IVH within 7 days postoperatively were enrolled in this study. The medical records and radiologic findings of these patients, together with their intraoperative video recordings, were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS Direct superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass or combined bypass was performed for 222 hemispheres in 193 adult patients with MMD between January 2001 and December 2016. Intracranial hemorrhage occurred perioperatively in 8 hemispheres (3.6%) in 8 patients. The hemorrhages developed immediately after STA-MCA direct anastomosis during surgery in 3 patients. Hemorrhage on computed tomography and neurologic deterioration were also observed immediately postoperatively in 2 patients and during the postoperative period in 3 patients. Although 4 patients received medical management, neurosurgical treatment was needed in the other 4 patients. One patient died, and 6 patients were left with moderate or severe disabilities. CONCLUSIONS Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH, IVH, or SAH) after direct bypass for adult patients with MMD is an extremely rare but fatal complication. Although these hemorrhages can be associated with hyperperfusion syndrome, no effective prevention has been established.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis is an established treatment for moyamoya disease. However, hemorrhagic cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) leads to poor outcomes. This study aimed to identify predictors of hemorrhagic CHS based on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in patients with moyamoya disease. METHODS The study included 251 hemispheres in 155 patients with moyamoya disease who underwent preoperative and postoperative rCBF measurements and superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery double anastomosis. We used rCBF increase rate for predicting hemorrhagic CHS. rCBF increase rate was calculated by 2 methods. In method 1, the rCBF value on the operated side was compared with the rCBF value on the nonoperated side. In method 2, the postoperative rCBF value on the operated side was compared with the preoperative rCBF value on the operated side. Patients were classified into 4 groups according to rCBF increase rate to predict risk of hemorrhagic CHS. RESULTS Hemorrhagic CHS occurred in 7 (2.8%) hemispheres (no children). Severe hemorrhagic CHS occurred in only 1 (0.4%) hemisphere. Hemorrhagic CHS was observed in patients with ≥30% rCBF increase according to method 1 and ≥50% rCBF increase according to method 2 and was most frequently noted in ≥100% rCBF increase. CONCLUSIONS Predictors for hemorrhagic CHS were ≥30% rCBF increase when using method 1 and ≥50% increase when using method 2.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Moyamoya disease (MMD) is being increasingly diagnosed with the development of radiological surveillance technology and increased accessibility to medical care. Accordingly, there have been several recent reports on treatment outcomes in MMD. In this review, we summarize recent advances in surgical treatment and outcomes of adult MMD, while addressing related controversies. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies suggest that revascularization surgery leads to significantly more favorable outcomes for stroke prevention, angiographic and hemodynamic changes, and clinical outcomes than does conservative treatment for adult patients with ischemic MMD. Moreover, direct revascularization methods should be considered as the first-line treatment over indirect methods, although the latter may be considered if a direct method is not possible. In cases of hemorrhagic MMD, several studies have demonstrated that surgical treatment is more effective than conservative treatment in preventing further hemorrhage. In addition to revascularization surgery, endovascular treatment is emerging as a breakthrough therapy for hemorrhagic MMD. Accumulating evidence regarding the surgical treatment of adult MMD suggests the benefit of revascularization over conservative management for both ischemic and hemorrhagic patients. However, the benefit of revascularization in asymptomatic adult MMD remains unclear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with moyamoya vasculopathy are at high risk of perioperative cerebral ischemia or hyperperfusion. Maintaining blood pressure within the range of functional cerebrovascular blood pressure autoregulation might reduce the risk of perioperative neurologic injury. AIMS We tested whether blood pressure autoregulation is associated with postoperative transient ischemic attack in a study of patients with pediatric moyamoya vasculopathy. METHODS We conducted an observational study of 15 pediatric patients undergoing surgical revascularization with pial synangiosis. Nine patients had bilateral moyamoya and 6 had unilateral moyamoya. We measured autoregulatory vasoreactivity intraoperatively and during the first postoperative night with the hemoglobin volume index, a value derived from near-infrared spectroscopy. We also identified the optimal mean arterial blood pressure at which autoregulation was most robust in each patient. RESULTS Of the 15 children monitored, 3 with bilateral moyamoya and one with unilateral moyamoya experienced a transient ischemic attack. Poorer autoregulation during surgery was associated with postoperative transient ischemic attack among those with bilateral vasculopathy (P = .048, difference in hemoglobin volume index medians: 0.023, 95% confidence interval: 0.003-0.071). This relationship was not observed with postoperative autoregulation. The optimal mean arterial blood pressure was identifiable during surgery in all monitored patients, varied among patients, and often differed between the intraoperative and postoperative periods. CONCLUSION Dysfunctional intraoperative autoregulation may increase the risk of TIA in patients with pediatric moyamoya vasculopathy. The blood pressure range that supports autoregulation appears to vary among patients. Using autoregulation monitoring to guide individualized blood pressure goals should be studied as a potential method to reduce perioperative neurologic morbidity in pediatric patients with moyamoya.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of hemorrhagic moyamoya disease (MMD) in Jilin province in northeast China. A total of 212 cases of hemorrhagic MMD were consecutively enrolled from the First Hospital of Jilin University in Changchun, China between January 2011 and January 2015. The patients' general clinical data, including age and gender characteristics, history of previous illnesses, hemorrhage type and onset symptoms, Hunt-Hess classification at admission, imaging characteristics, association with aneurysms, treatments and prognosis, were recorded and analyzed using SPSS 19.0. The results demonstrated that i) patients with hemorrhagic MMD in Jilin province were 47.7±11.5 years of age; ii) hemorrhagic MMD was primarily characterized by subarachnoid hemorrhage; iii) a total of 51.9% of the hemorrhagic MMD cases involved a unilateral artery; iv) a total of 24.1% of the hemorrhagic MMD cases were accompanied by anterior choroid artery and/or posterior communicating artery expansion; and v) following conservative or surgical treatment, patients with a prognostic Glasgow Outcome Scale score of 5 accounted for 65.6% of the study population. Therefore, the present study identified characteristics of MMD in Jilin province in northeast China. These results may improve understanding of the epidemiology of MMD in China, which at present remains not well established. Although the results are representative only of Jilin province in China, the study demonstrated high consistency with other studies, and thus may indirectly contribute to general understanding of hemorrhagic MMD etiology.

Abstract
Ocular or eye pain is a frequent complaint encountered not only by eye care providers but neurologists. Isolated eye pain is non-specific and non-localizing; therefore, it poses significant differential diagnostic problems. A wide range of neurologic and ophthalmic disorders may cause pain in, around, or behind the eye. These include ocular and orbital diseases and primary and secondary headaches. In patients presenting with an isolated and chronic eye pain, neuroimaging is usually normal. However, at the beginning of a disease process or in low-grade disease, the eye may appear "quiet," misleading a provider lacking familiarity with underlying disorders and high index of clinical suspicion. Delayed diagnosis of some neuro-ophthalmic causes of eye pain could result in significant neurologic and ophthalmic morbidity, conceivably even mortality. This article reviews some recent advances in imaging of the eye, the orbit, and the brain, as well as research in which neuroimaging has advanced the discovery of the underlying pathophysiology and the complex differential diagnosis of eye pain.

Abstract
Dexmedetomidine, a selective α2-agonist, reduces cerebral blood flow and has neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in experimental animals. We examined whether intraoperative dexmedetomidine would reduce the incidence of postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis in patients with moyamoya disease.The electronic medical records of 117 moyamoya patients who underwent STA-MCA anastomosis were reviewed retrospectively. The patients were divided into 2 groups: 48 patients received intraoperative dexmedetomidine (Group D), while 69 patients did not (Group ND). The incidence (primary outcome), onset, and duration of postoperative CHS were noted.The incidence of postoperative CHS was 45.8% and 40.6% in groups D and ND, respectively (P = 0.708). The duration of postoperative CHS was shorter in group D than in group ND (median [Q1-Q3], 5 [3-7] vs 8 [5-10] days, P = 0.021). There was no significant difference in the onset of CHS between group D and group ND (0 [0-2] vs 1 [0-3] days, P = 0.226).In conclusion, intraoperative dexmedetomidine did not reduce the incidence of postoperative CHS, although it reduced the duration of CHS, in patients who had undergone direct revascularization surgery for moyamoya disease.

Arterial Spin Labeling Techniques 2009-2014. J Med Imaging Radiat Sci 2016; 47:98-107. [PMID: 31047171 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmir.2015.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2015] [Revised: 07/03/2015] [Accepted: 08/18/2015] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Arterial spin labeling (ASL) techniques have been implemented across a diverse range of clinical and experimental applications. This review aims to evaluate the current feasibility of ASL in clinical neuroradiology based on recent improvements to ASL sequences and highlight areas for potential clinical applications. METHODS AND MATERIALS In December 2014, a literature search was conducted on PubMed Central, EMBASE, and Scopus using the search terms: "arterial spin labeling, neuroradiology," for studies published between 2009 and 2014 (inclusive). Of 483 studies matching the inclusion criteria, the number of studies using continuous, pseudocontinuous, pulsed, and velocity-selective ASL sequences was 42, 209, 226, and 3, respectively. Studies were classified based on several common clinical applications according to the type of ASL sequence used. Studies using pulsed ASL and pseudo-continuous ASL were grouped based on common sequences. RESULTS The number of clinical studies was 264. Numerous studies applied ASL to stroke management (43 studies), drug testing (21 studies), neurodegenerative diseases (40 studies), and psychiatric disorders (26 studies). CONCLUSIONS This review discusses several factors hindering the implementation of clinical ASL and ASL-related radiofrequency safety issues encountered in clinical practice. However, a limited number of search terms were used. Further development of robust sequences with multislice imaging capabilities and reduced radiofrequency energy deposition will hopefully improve the clinical acceptance of ASL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Transient neurological symptoms are frequently observed during the early postoperative period after direct bypass surgery for moyamoya disease. Abnormal signal changes in the cerebral cortex can be seen in postoperative MR images. The purpose of this study was to reveal the radiological features of the "cortical hyperintensity belt (CHB) sign" in postoperative FLAIR images and to verify its relationship to transient neurological events (TNEs) and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). METHODS A total of 141 hemispheres in 107 consecutive patients with moyamoya disease who had undergone direct bypass surgery were analyzed. In all cases, FLAIR images were obtained during postoperative days (PODs) 1-3 and during the chronic period (3.2 ± 1.13 months after surgery). The CHB sign was defined as an intraparenchymal high-intensity signal within the cortex of the surgically treated hemisphere with no infarction or hemorrhage present. The territory of the middle cerebral artery was divided into anterior and posterior parts, with the extent of the CHB sign in each part scored as 0 for none; 1 for presence in less than half of the part; and 2 for presence in more than half of the part. The sum of these scores provided the CHB score (0-4). TNEs were defined as reversible neurological deficits detected both objectively and subjectively. The rCBF was measured with SPECT using N-isopropyl-p-[123I]iodoamphetamine before surgery and during PODs 1-3. The rCBF increase ratio was calculated by comparing the pre- and postoperative count activity. RESULTS Cortical hyperintensity belt signs were detected in 112 cases (79.4%) and all disappeared during the chronic period. Although all bypass grafts were anastomosed to the anterior part of the middle cerebral artery territory, CHB signs were much more pronounced in the posterior part (p < 0.0001). TNEs were observed in 86 cases (61.0%). Patients with TNEs showed significantly higher CHB scores than those without (2.31 ± 0.13 vs 1.24 ± 0.16, p < 0.0001). The CHB score, on the other hand, showed no relationship with the rCBF increase ratio (p = 0.775). In addition, the rCBF increase ratio did not differ between those patients with TNEs and those without (1.15 ± 0.033 vs 1.16 ± 0.037, p = 0.978). CONCLUSIONS The findings strongly suggest that the presence of the CHB sign during PODs 1-3 can be a predictor of TNEs after bypass surgery for moyamoya disease. On the other hand, presence of this sign appears to have no direct relationship with the postoperative local hyperperfusion phenomenon. Vasogenic edema can be hypothesized as the pathophysiology of the CHB sign, because the sign was transient and never accompanied by infarction in the present series.

Abstract
Moyamoya disease (MMD) involves progressive occlusion of the intracranial internal carotid artery resulting in formation of moyamoya-like vessels at the base of the brain. It can be characterized by hemorrhage or ischemia. Direct vascular bypass is the main and most effective treatment of MMD. However, patients with MMD differ from those with normal cerebral vessels. MMD patients have unstable intracranial artery hemodynamics and a poor blood flow reserve; therefore, during the direct bypass of superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis, perioperative risk factors and anesthesia can affect the hemodynamics of these patients. When brain tissue cannot tolerate a high blood flow rate, it becomes prone to hyperperfusion syndrome, which leads to neurological function defects and can even cause intracranial hemorrhage in severe cases. The brain tissue is prone to infarction when hemodynamic equilibrium is affected. In addition, bypass vessels become susceptible to occlusion or atrophy when blood resistance increases. Even compression of the temporalis affects bypass vessels. Because the STA is used in MMD surgery, the scalp becomes ischemic and is likely to develop necrosis and infection. These complications of MMD surgery are difficult to manage and are not well understood. To date, no systematic studies of the complications that occur after direct bypass in MMD have been performed, and reported complications are hidden among various case studies; therefore, this paper presents a review and summary of the literature in PubMed on the complications of direct bypass in MMD.

Abstract
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive MRI technique to measure cerebral blood flow (CBF). This review provides a practical guide and overview of the clinical applications of ASL of the brain, as well its potential pitfalls. The technical and physiological background is also addressed. At present, main areas of interest are cerebrovascular disease, dementia and neuro-oncology. In cerebrovascular disease, ASL is of particular interest owing to its quantitative nature and its capability to determine cerebral arterial territories. In acute stroke, the source of the collateral blood supply in the penumbra may be visualised. In chronic cerebrovascular disease, the extent and severity of compromised cerebral perfusion can be visualised, which may be used to guide therapeutic or preventative intervention. ASL has potential for the detection and follow-up of arteriovenous malformations. In the workup of dementia patients, ASL is proposed as a diagnostic alternative to PET. It can easily be added to the routinely performed structural MRI examination. In patients with established Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dementia, hypoperfusion patterns are seen that are similar to hypometabolism patterns seen with PET. Studies on ASL in brain tumour imaging indicate a high correlation between areas of increased CBF as measured with ASL and increased cerebral blood volume as measured with dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced perfusion imaging. Major advantages of ASL for brain tumour imaging are the fact that CBF measurements are not influenced by breakdown of the blood–brain barrier, as well as its quantitative nature, facilitating multicentre and longitudinal studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Unilateral haemodynamically significant large-vessel intracranial stenosis may be associated with reduced blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), an indicator of autoregulatory reserve. Reduced CVR has been associated with ipsilateral cortical thinning and loss in cognitive function. These effects have been shown to be reversible following revascularisation. Our aim was to study the effects of unilateral revascularisation on CVR in the non-intervened hemisphere in bilateral steno-occlusive or Moyamoya disease. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective observational study. SETTING A routine follow-up assessment of CVR after a revascularisation procedure at a research teaching hospital in Toronto (Journal wants us to generalise). PARTICIPANTS Thirteen patients with bilateral Moyamoya disease (age range 18 to 52 years; 3 males), seven patients with steno-occlusive disease (age range 18 to 78 years; six males) and 27 approximately age-matched normal control subjects (age range 19-71 years; 16 males) with no history or findings suggestive of any neurological or systemic disease. INTERVENTION Participants underwent BOLD CVR MRI using computerised prospective targeting of CO2, before and after unilateral revascularisation (extracranial-intracranial bypass, carotid endarterectomy or encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis). Pre-revascularisation and post-revascularisation CVR was assessed in each major arterial vascular territory of both hemispheres. RESULTS As expected, surgical revascularisation improved grey matter CVR in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory of the intervened hemisphere (0.010±0.023 to 0.143±0.010%BOLD/mm Hg, p<0.01). There was also a significant post-revascularisation improvement in grey matter CVR in the MCA territory of the non-intervened hemisphere (0.101±0.025 to 0.165±0.015%BOLD/mm Hg, p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Not only does CVR improve in the hemisphere ipsilateral to a flow restoration procedure, but it also improves in the non-intervened hemisphere. This highlights the potential of CVR mapping for staging and evaluating surgical interventions.

Abstract
Blood pressure can vary considerably during anesthesia. If blood pressure falls outside the limits of cerebrovascular autoregulation, children can become at risk of cerebral ischemic or hyperemic injury. However, the blood pressure limits of autoregulation are unclear in infants and children, and these limits can shift after brain injury. This article will review autoregulation, considerations for the hemodynamic management of children with brain injuries, and research on autoregulation monitoring techniques.

Abstract
Moyamoya disease is a progressive intracranial arteriopathy characterized by bilateral stenosis of the distal portion of the internal carotid artery and the proximal anterior and middle cerebral arteries, resulting in transient ischemic attacks or strokes. The pathogenesis of moyamoya disease remains unresolved, but recent advances have suggested exciting new insights into a genetic contribution as well as into other pathophysiological mechanisms. Treatment that may halt progression of the disease or even reverse the intracranial arteriopathy is yet to be found. There are strong indications that neurosurgical intervention, through direct, indirect, or combined revascularization surgery, can reduce the risk of ischemic stroke and possibly also cognitive dysfunction by improving cerebral perfusion, although randomized clinical trials have not been performed. Many questions regarding the indication for and timing of surgery remain unanswered. In this review, we discuss recent developments in the pathogenesis and treatment of moyamoya disease.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
High-flow extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass is performed by using radial artery graphs (RAGs) or saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) for various pathologies such as aneurysms, ischemia, and skull-base tumors. Quantifying the acceptable amount of blood flow to maintain proper cerebral perfusion has not been well established, nor have the variables that influence flow been determined.
OBJECTIVE:
To identify the normative range of blood flow through extracranial-intracranial RAGs and SVGs as measured by duplex ultrasonography. Multiple variables were evaluated to better understand their influence of graft flow.
METHODS:
All EC-IC grafts performed at Harborview Medical Center from 2005 to 2012 were retrospectively reviewed for this cohort study. Daily extracranial graft duplex ultrasonography with flow volumes and transcranial graft Doppler were examined, as were short- and long-term outcomes. Both ischemic and hyperemic events were evaluated in further detail.
RESULTS:
Eighty monitorable high-flow EC-IC bypasses were performed over the 8-year period. Sixty-five bypasses were performed by using RAGs and 15 were performed with SVGs. The average flow was 133 mL/min for RAGs and 160 mL/min for SVGs (P = .25). For both RAG and SVG groups, the donor and recipient vessel selected significantly impacted flow. For the RAG group only, preoperative graft diameter, postoperative hematocrit, and postoperative date significantly influenced flow. A 1-week average of >200 mL/min was 100% sensitive to cerebral hyperemia syndrome.
CONCLUSION:
This study establishes the normative range of duplex ultrasonographic flow after high-flow EC-IC bypass, as well the usefulness and practicality of such monitoring as a surrogate to flow in the postoperative period.
