Filter by:In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the indirect revascularization outcomes of a new combination therapy of multiple burrhole procedure with promotion of arteriogenesis by intravenous (IV) erythropoietin (EPO) pretreatment on Moyamoya patients with acute neurological presentation, and outline the clinical and vascular factors associated with revascularization through the burrholes.
In the present study, we evaluated whether RIPC with RIPostC reduce the major neurocomplication in patients undergoing STA-MCA anastomosis.
The investigators conducted a prospective multi-center study assessing the effect of direct bypass and indrect bypass in treatment of hemorrhagic moyamoya disease.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of sevoflurane postconditioning on the incidence of postoperative hyperperfusion syndrome following revascularization surgery in moyamoya patients.
This is a study to ascertain the number of children with moyamoya in the UK, their presenting features, clinical course and outcomes.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether extracranial-intracranial(EC-IC) bypass surgery could prevent rebleeding and improve neurological function in adult moyamoya with hemorrhagic onset.
Adult patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) are reported to suffer from considerable impairment of executive function/attention. Although reduced cerebrovascular reserve (CVR) in frontal areas has been detected by perfusion MRI and then confirmed to be associated with executive dysfunction in adult MMD, the structural and functional changes is still unclear with progression of executive dysfunction. Furthermore, it is very important to study the association between the neurocognitive and radiological improvement after surgical revascularization, so as to help detecting cerebral regions which are involved in executive deterioration or improvement after surgery. Then the investigators can determine whether these regions can be used as indicators to decide rational therapeutic schedule and timing of adult MMD with executive dysfunction. Thus the aim of this study is to primarily find out the neuropsychological and radiological correlates in adult MMD, and then to quantitatively evaluate the effectiveness of surgical revascularization in prevention of executive dysfunction in adult MMD.
Seldinger technique is a minimally invasive technique in which the practitioner accesses the target vessel with a small bore needle, then dilates to the size required for the catheter. Contrarily, modified Seldinger technique(guiding sheath-over-the-needle technique) use needle that is covered with guiding sheath. Both technique is widely used in central venous catheterization, however, few researches have been investigated to compare success rate or complications of both methods.
The aim of this study is to investigate the proportion of patients with moyamoya disease among the patients who were diagnosed as having intracranial atherosclerotic stroke. To do this, biomarkers (gene and imaging) for moyamoya disease are tested and follow up angiography are performed during follow up (in selected patients).
