Cerebral Hemodynamic Changes After Revascularization in Patients With Hemorrhagic Moyamoya Disease.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To explore the cerebral hemodynamic changes after revascularization in patients with hemorrhagic moyamoya disease (MMD). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively included 57 hemorrhagic MMD patients in a high-volume stroke center from January 2016 to December 2018. All subjects were evaluated with whole-brain CT perfusion (CTP) before and after surgical revascularization. Absolute and relative CTP values in the regions of cortical middle cerebral artery territory (CMT) and deep brain area (DBA) of hemorrhagic hemispheres were measured. Differences between pre- and post-operative CTP values were assessed comprehensively. The patients were categorized into subgroups based on revascularization subtypes and postoperative CTP intervals. Results: The relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) in DBA and CMT significantly reduced in postoperative CTP (P < 0.05). The median and interquartile range of the proportion of rCBV decrease (rCBVc%) were 7.2% (2.3-13.2%). The rCBV reduction retained statistical significant in patients who received subtypes of revascularization, and in patients with variable intervals of follow-up (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference of rCBVc% between patients who received different revascularization and among patients with different postoperative CTP intervals (P > 0.05). The relative mean transit time (rMTT) and relative time to peak (rTTP) also showed downward trends, but without retainable statistical significance in stratified analysis. There was no significant change in relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) (P > 0.05). Conclusion: In patients with hemorrhagic MMD, the CBV appeared to decrease and be relatively stable in the chronic phase after revascularization, with varying degrees of MTT and TTP shortening. However, there was no significant change in CBF.

Project description:Objective: To evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes after revascularization of hemorrhagic moyamoya disease (MMD). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively collected patients with hemorrhagic MMD who received revascularization from January 2011 to June 2018 at a high-volume stroke center. Rebleeding, ischemic stroke, modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and death after revascularization were used to evaluate long-term clinical outcome. Poor neurological outcome was defined as a mRS>2. The changes of original and revascularization collaterals were used to evaluate radiological outcome. The clinical and radiological outcomes between patients with different surgical revascularization were compared. Results: A total of 312 patients (319 hemispheres) were recruited, including 133 hemispheres (41.7%) with indirect revascularization and 186 hemispheres (58.3%) with direct revascularization. In 308 hemispheres with clinical follow-up data, Postoperative rebleeding, ischemic stroke, poor neurological outcome and death occurred in 13.0% (40/308), 2.6% (8/308), 12.0% (37/308), and 6.2% (19/308) of the hemispheres, respectively. The rates of postoperative rebleeding (8.5 vs. 19.1%, P = 0.006) and poor neurological outcome (8.5 vs. 16.8%, P = 0.026) were lower in hemispheres with direct revascularization than those with indirect revascularization. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the rates of postoperative ischemic stroke (1.1 vs. 4.6%, P = 0.129) and death (4.5 vs. 8.4%, P = 0.162) between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the risk of postoperative rebleeding was higher in those with untreated aneurysms, repetitive bleeding episodes, normal perfusion status, and indirect revascularization (P < 0.05). In 78 hemispheres with radiological follow-up data, the regression of moyamoya vessels, anterior choroidal artery (AchA), posterior communicating artery (PcomA) and aneurysms were present in 44.9, 47.4, 25.6, and 11.5% of the hemispheres, respectively. The regression of original collaterals and establishment of revascularization collaterals were more significant in hemispheres with direct revascularization than those with indirect revascularization (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Direct revascularization may be superior to indirect revascularization for prevention of rebleeding and poor neurological outcome in adults with hemorrhagic MMD. The risk of postoperative rebleeding was higher in those with untreated aneurysms, repetitive bleeding episodes, normal perfusion status, and indirect revascularization. The regression of original collaterals and establishment of revascularization collaterals after revascularization were more significant in hemispheres with direct revascularization than those with indirect revascularization.

Project description:ObjectiveCombined bypass is commonly used in adult Moyamoya disease (MMD) for revascularization purposes. The blood flow from the external carotid artery system supplied by the superficial temporal artery (STA), middle meningeal artery (MMA), and deep temporal artery (DTA) can restore the impaired hemodynamics of the ischemic brain. In this study we attempted to evaluate the hemodynamic changes of the STA graft and predict the angiogenesis outcomes in MMD patients after combined bypass surgery by using quantitative ultrasonography.MethodsWe retrospectively studied Moyamoya patients who were treated by combined bypass between September 2017 and June 2021 in our hospital. We quantitatively measured the STA with ultrasound and recorded the blood flow, diameter, pulsatility index (PI) and resistance index (RI) to assess graft development preoperatively and at 1 day, 7 days, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. All patients received both pre- and post- operative angiography evaluation. Patients were divided into either well- or poorly-angiogenesis groups according to the transdural collateral formation status on angiography at 6 months after surgery (W group or P group). Patients with matshushima grade A or B were divided into W group. Patients with matshushima grade C were divided into P group, indicating a poor angiogenesis development.ResultsA total of 52 patients with 54 operated hemispheres were enrolled, including 25 men and 27 women with an average age of 39 ± 14.3 years. Compared to preoperative values, the average blood flow of an STA graft at day 1 postoperation increased from 16.06 ± 12.47 to 117.47± 73.77 (mL/min), diameter increased from 1.14 ± 0.33 to 1.81 ± 0.30 (mm), PI dropped from 1.77 ± 0.42 to 0.76 ± 0.37, and RI dropped from 1.77 ± 0.42 to 0.50 ± 0.12. According to the Matsushima grade at 6 months after surgery, 30 hemispheres qualified as W group and 24 hemispheres as P group. Statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in diameter (p = 0.010) as well as flow (p = 0.017) at 3 months post-surgery. Flow also remained significantly different at 6 months after surgery (p = 0.014). Based on GEE logistic regression evaluation, the patients with higher levels of flow post-operation were more likely to have poorly-compensated collateral. ROC analysis showed that increased flow of ≥69.5 ml/min (p = 0.003; AUC = 0.74) or a 604% (p = 0.012; AUC = 0.70) increase at 3 months post-surgery compared with the pre-operative value is the cut-off point which had the highest Youden's index for predicting P group. Furthermore, a diameter at 3 months post-surgery that is ≥0.75 mm (p = 0.008; AUC = 0.71) or 52% (p =0.021; AUC = 0.68) wider than pre-operation also indicates a high risk of poor indirect collateral formation.ConclusionsThe hemodynamic of the STA graft changed significantly after combined bypass surgery. An increased flow of more than 69.5 ml/min at 3 months was a good predictive factor for poor neoangiogenesis in MMD patients treated with combined bypass surgery.
