Risk factors and a novel cerebral infarction extent scoring system for postoperative cerebral ischemia in patients with ischemic Moyamoya disease.

ABSTRACT: Postoperative cerebral ischemic complication is the most common complication of revascularization surgery for patients with moyamoya disease (MMD). This retrospective study was conducted on 63 patients with ischemic MMD. Postoperative ischemia occurred in 15 of the 70 revascularization operations performed for patients after surgical revascularization, translating to an incidence of 21.4%. Univariate analysis revealed that onset infarction (p = 0.015), posterior cerebral artery involvement (p = 0.039), strict perioperative management (p = 0.001), interval time between transient ischemic attack (TIA) or infarction presentation and operation (p = 0.002) and preoperatively cerebral infarction extent score (CIES) (p = 0.002) were significantly associated with postoperative cerebral ischemia.
