Exploration of the risk factor for infarction after revascularization in moyamoya disease.

Eventually, 108 consecutive patients received 174 surgeries were enrolled, experienced new or expanded infarction occured in 13 (7.47%) surgeries, which showed higher Suzuki stage on the non-operative side, more posterior cerebral artery (PCA) involvement, and more intraoperative hypotension compared to those without infarction( Revascularization was a safe option for patients with MMD, higher Suzuki stage on the non-operative side, PCA involvement, and intraoperative hypotension might be the risk factors for new or expanded infarction after revascularization in patients with MMD.
