Abstrakt: Objective: We describe our experience performing encephalo-duro-pericranio synangiosis for the parieto-occipital region (EDPS-p) as a treatment for moyamoya disease (MMD) with hemodynamic disturbances caused by lesions of the posterior cerebral artery.
Methods: From 2004 to 2020, 60 hemispheres of 50 patients with MMD (38/50 females, age 1-55 years) underwent EDPS-p as a treatment for hemodynamic disturbances in the parieto-occipital region. A skin incision was made on the parieto-occipital area to avoid the major skin arteries, and the pedicle flap was created by attaching the pericranium to the dura mater under the craniotomy with multiple small incisions. The surgical outcome was assessed on the basis of the following points: perioperative complications, postoperative improvement of clinical symptoms, subsequent novel ischemic events, qualitative assessment of the development of collateral vessels by magnetic resonance arteriography, quantitative assessment of postoperative perfusion improvement based on the mean transit time, and cerebral blood volume on dynamic susceptibility contrast imaging.
Results: Perioperative infarction occurred in 7/60 hemispheres (11.7%). The transient ischemic symptoms observed preoperatively disappeared in 39/41 hemispheres (95.1%) during the follow-up period (12-187 months), and none of the patients experienced novel ischemic events. Collateral vessels supplied from the occipital arteries, middle meningeal arteries, and posterior auricular arteries developed postoperatively in 56/60 hemispheres (93.3%). Postoperative mean transit time and cerebral blood volume showed significant improvement in the occipital, parietal, and temporal areas (P < 0.001), as well as the frontal area (P = 0.01).
Conclusions: EDPS-p seems to be an effective surgical treatment for patients with MMD who suffer hemodynamic disturbances caused by posterior cerebral artery lesions.
