STA-ACA bypass using the ipsilateral free STA graft as an interposition graft and A3-A3 anastomosis for treatment of bilateral ACA steno-occlusive ischemia

Background Anterior cerebral artery (ACA)-related ischemia is a rare entity in patients with atherosclerosis. Some surgical treatments are reported to date. Method We present the modification of intracranial-intracranial and intracranial-extracranial bypasses for symptomatic bilateral ACA steno-occl...

Zusammenfassung:Background Anterior cerebral artery (ACA)-related ischemia is a rare entity in patients with atherosclerosis. Some surgical treatments are reported to date. Method We present the modification of intracranial-intracranial and intracranial-extracranial bypasses for symptomatic bilateral ACA steno-occlusive disease. The A3-A3 bypass followed by the superficial temporal artery-ACA bypass using the ipsilateral free superficial temporal artery graft is useful without harvesting of the radial artery. Conclusion Bilateral ACA steno-occlusive induced ischemia can be treated with tailored bypass procedures.
