Comparison of Long-Term Effect Between Direct and Indirect Bypass for Pediatric Ischemic-Type Moyamoya Disease: A Propensity Score-Matched Study

Abstract: Objectives: This study aimed to compare the postoperative risks and long-term effects between direct bypass surgery (DB) and indirect bypass (IB) surgery for pediatric patients with ischemic-type moyamoya disease (MMD). Method: Pediatric patients (under or equal to 18 years old) who were diagnosed as MMD and given surgical treatments at our center between 2009 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed from a prospective database. Pediatric hemorrhagic-type MMD patients and those… Show more

“…Many studies confirmed that DB and CB were more effective than indirect surgery in preventing recurrent stroke in adult (10, 30). However, for pediatric patients, indirect surgery can yield similar results with DB and CB (31), but there are few studies on superior surgical modality between DB and CB up until now. In our study, DB and CB had similar angiographic outcomes (postoperative collateral formation and bypass patency).…”

“…For example, according to a meta-analysis, the estimated stroke rate was higher in indirect bypass (9.0%) than in direct bypass (4.5%) and combined bypass (6.0%) [ 14 ]. Our recent study showed that during the short term after surgery, direct bypass might be superior to indirect bypass in preventing recurrent ischemic strokes [ 15 ]. In addition, it usually takes months to improve cerebral blood flow after indirect bypass because neovascularization from connective tissue is not immediate [ 4 ].…”
