    Summary

    Superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass surgery effectively treated patients with complex cerebrovascular lesions. The procedure showed promising results for improving patient outcomes in cases of intracranial and extracranial artery disease.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Cerebrovascular lesions pose significant risks, often requiring complex surgical interventions.
    • Superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass is a key procedure for managing these conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of STA-MCA bypass in patients with combined intracranial and extracranial cerebrovascular lesions.
    • To analyze different lesion combinations and their impact on surgical results.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 118 candidates for STA-MCA bypass.
    • Identification of 20 patients with combined intracranial and extracranial cerebrovascular lesions.
    • Surgical intervention including STA-MCA bypass, contralateral reconstruction, and endarterectomy.

    Main Results:

    • 18 patients underwent STA-MCA bypass; 11 had contralateral internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis reconstruction, and 7 had external carotid artery (ECA) stenosis corrected.
    • Two patients improved with ECA endarterectomy alone, postponing bypass.
    • Outcomes included 11 asymptomatic, 5 improved, 1 unchanged, and 1 neurologically worse; two deaths occurred.

    Conclusions:

    • STA-MCA bypass is a viable option for selected patients with complex cerebrovascular disease.
    • Combined intracranial and extracranial lesions present unique challenges, but surgical intervention can lead to favorable outcomes.
    • Further research may refine patient selection and surgical strategies for these complex cases.
