Popis: Few papers have reported detailed accounts of intracerebral hemorrhage caused by cerebral hyperperfusion after superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass (STA-MCA) bypass for atherosclerotic occlusive cerebrovascular disease. We report a case of vasogenic edema and subsequent intracerebral hemorrhage caused by the cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after STA-MCA bypass for atherosclerotic occlusive cerebrovascular disease disease without intense postoperative blood pressure control. A 63-year-old man with repeating left hemiparesis underwent magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), which revealed right internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion. We performed a double bypass superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass surgery for the M2 and M3 branches. While the patient's postoperative course was relatively uneventful, he suffered generalized convulsions, and computed tomography revealed a low area in the right frontal lobe on Day 4 after surgery. We considered this lesion to be pure vasogenic edema caused by cerebral hyperperfusion after revascularization. Intravenous drip infusion of a free radical scavenger (edaravone) and efforts to reduce systolic blood pressure to
