- Abstract
- "Background : The obstruction of intracranial arteries causes cerebral hemodynamic impairment. It is now evident that patients with
cerebral hemodynamic compromise have a higher risk of stroke than those with normal cerebral blood flow. The purpose of this
study is to investigate the changes of cerebral blood flow and vascular reactivity after extra-intracranial arterial bypass (EIAB)
surgery in patients with cerebral hemodynamic compromise. Methods : We enrolled 16 consecutive patients (8 female and 8 male
patients) with transient ischemic attack or cerebral infarction resulted from the occlusion of distal internal carotid artery (ICA) or
middle cerebral artery (MCA). We measured the relative regional cerebral blood flow (rrCBF) at rest and after Diamox infusion, and
vasomotor reactivity by using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). We performed extra-intracranial arterial
bypass (EIAB) surgery in patients with impaired vasomotor reactivity. Follow-up brain SPECT was done at 3months after EIAB. We
compared the rrCBF and vasomotor reactivity before and after EIAB, and evaluated the effect of collateral vessels on the cerebral
hemodynamic after surgery. Results : EIAB increases the vasomotor reactivity significantly (-19.6 10 before EIAB, 11.2 27 after
EIAB, p=0.003) but does not increase the cerebral blood flow at rest (70.5% before EIAB, 70.9% after EIAB). The degree of collat-eral
vessel development did not influence on the restoration of vasomotor reactivity. Conclusions : These results demonstrate that
EIAB increases the vasomotor reactivity of the distal part on the occluded ICA or MCA, but does not increase the cerebral blood
flow at rest.Key Words : Vasomotor reactivity, Cerebral blood flow, Hemodynamic impairment, EIAB
