ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of surgery on 47 patients with moyamoya disease by retrospective analysis.Methods:A total of 47 patients with moyamoya disease were enrolled from August,2010 to According to the improved treatment in August,2013,all cases were divided into two groups:a pre-improved group and a post-improved group.According to different surgical methods,they were divided into two subgroups:an indirect revascularization subgroup and a combined revascularization subgroup.Results:The cerebral ischemia in 77.4％ of patients was relieved after the surgery.There was significant difference in outcomes of patients between the pre-improved group and the post-improved group (P＜0.05),while there was no significant difference between the pre-improved indirect revascularization subgroup and the pre-improved combined revascularization subgroup.There was also no significant difference between the post-improved indirect revascularization subgroup and the post-improved combined revascularization subgroups (P＞0.05).Conclusion:Surgical treatment can improve the outcomes of patients with moyamoya disease,but there is no significant difference in surgical effects between indirect and combined revascularization.
