Purpose: To describe a surgical technique for posterior cerebral revascularization in pediatric patients with moyamoya arteriopathy. Here, we describe the clinical characteristics, surgical indications, operative techniques, and clinical and radiographic outcomes in a series of pediatric patients with moyamoya disease affecting the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) territory. Methods: A retrospective single-center series of all pediatric patients with moyamoya disease who presented to our institute between July 2009 through August 2019 were reviewed. The clinical characteristics, surgical indications, operative techniques, and long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of pediatric moyamoya patients with PCA territory ischemia were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 10 PCA revascularization procedures were performed in 9 patients, 5 female, ages 1 to 11.1 years (average 5.2 years). Complications included 1 stroke, with no infections, hemorrhages, seizures, or deaths. One patient had less than 1 year of radiographic and clinical follow-up. In 8 of 9 patients with at least 1 year of radiographic follow-up, there was engraftment of surgical vessels present in all cases. No new strokes were identified on long-term follow-up despite the radiographic progression of the disease. In the 8 cases available for analysis, the average follow-up was 50.8 months with a range of 12 to 117 months. Conclusions: PCA territory ischemia in patients with progressive moyamoya disease can be surgically treated with indirect revascularization. Here, we describe our experience with PCA revascularization procedures for moyamoya disease, including pial pericranial dural (PiPeD) revascularization and pial synangiosis utilizing the occipital artery. These surgical options may be useful for decreasing the risk of stroke in pediatric moyamoya patients with severe posterior circulation disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
