About this study

Official title: Multimodal Neuronavigation Guiding Precision Bypass in Adult Ischemic Patients With Moyamoya Disease

Extracranial-intracranial arterial bypass, including anastomosis of the superficial temporal artery to the middle cerebral artery and indirect bypass, can help prevent further ischaemic attacks in patients with Moyamoya disease (MMD). However, there is no established standard for the selection of the recipient vessels. In most situations, surgeons choose the recipient vessels with their own experiences. Intraoperative Indocyanine green (ICG) angiography using Flow800 software and multimodal neuronavigation can be used to assess the real-time cerebral blood flow velocity and perfusion of local brain tissue for better selection of the recipient vessels. Thus the aim of this study is to to determine whether direct bypass surgery combined with multimodal neuronavigation is superior to traditional direct bypass procedure alone in adult ischemic MMD patients.

Read the detailed description

There are no effective medical therapies for moyamoya disease. Through the provision of collateral pathways, surgical revascularisation is the most successful therapy to improve cerebral haemodynamics, and to reduce the risk of subsequent stroke. Surgical procedures for moyamoya disease can be classified into three categories: direct bypass, indirect bypass, and combined bypass. Although surgeons have their own experience choosing the recipient vessels,no standard has been established based on a worldwide consensus.

Intraoperative ICG angiography using Flow800 software and multimodal neuronavigation (structure combined with perfusion MRI sequence) can be used to assess the real-time cerebral blood flow velocity and perfusion of local brain tissue, which is contribute to choose a recipient vessels with relative low cerebral blood flow velocity and perfusion.

Therefore,the PBM study in our institution is designed to compare the direct bypass surgery with multimodal neuronavigation with traditional direct bypass procedure alone in preventing any ischemic event afterwards after cerebral revascularization surgery in adult ischemic MMD patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Precision bypass groupProcedure or surgery

    With the brain cortex exposed after craniotomy, an initial ICG fluorescence angiography will be performed. ICG fluorescence angiography using Flow800 software to determine blood flow velocity and cortical perfusion in different candidate receptors. And electromagnetic neuronavigation system is used to evaluate the cerebral flow under different candidate recipient vessels. The treatment planning station will be situated based on the multimodal neuronavigation data. The vessel was chose as the receptor with lower flow velocity and lower cerebral perfusion area to perform anastomosis. Then a direct bypass surgery will be performed just like in the empirical direct bypass surgery group.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Infarctions

    Infarctions on the contralateral side within 1 year of randomization

    Measured: 1 years

  3. Transient ischemic attack (TIA)

    Transient ischemic attack on the surgically treated side within 1 year of randomization

    Measured: 1 years

  4. Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF)

    The changes from baseline in CBF measured by arterial spin labeling (ASL) at 7days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial

    Measured: at 7days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial

  5. modified Rankin Scale (mRS)

    The changes from baseline in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial. The mRS ranges from 0-6. A mRS of 0-2 is identified as a favourable outcome, and a score of 3-6 as an unfavourable outcome.

    Measured: at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial

  6. National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)

    The changes from baseline in National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial. A total score will be calculated and ranges from 0-42. A NIHSS of 0-14 is identified as a favourable outcome, and a score of 15-42 as an unfavourable outcome.

    Measured: at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial

  7. modified Barthel Index

    The changes from baseline in modified Barthel Index at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial

    Measured: at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or end of trial
