Their data were analyzed using the Berlin grading system with minor modifications. After summarizing the numerical values for digital subtraction angiography (1-3 points), magnetic resonance imaging (0-1 points), and single-photon emission computed tomography (0-2 points), 3 grades of moyamoya disease were defined: mild (grade I) = 1 to 2 points, moderate (grade II) = 3 to 4 points, and severe (grade III) = 5 to 6 points. In total, 82 of 161 hemispheres underwent superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery anastomosis and indirect synangiosis. Postoperative neurological morbidity was included within 30 d after surgery.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n \n Preoperative examinations categorized 87 hemispheres as grade I, 39 as grade II, and 50 as grade III. There was a significant correlation between the Berlin grading system and clinical severity (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < .001). Perioperative complications occurred in 12 of 82 (14.6%) hemispheres, including transient ischemic attack in 3 hemispheres, ischemic stroke in 4 hemispheres, symptomatic hyperperfusion in 4 hemispheres, and intracerebral hemorrhage in 1 hemisphere. The Berlin grading system was related to their occurrence (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < .001).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSION<\/jats:title>\n The Berlin grading system facilitates the stratification of clinical severity and predicting postoperative neurological morbidity in adult moyamoya disease, thereby suggesting its general usage in clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/neuros\/nyx140","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,24]],"date-time":"2017-05-24T07:09:39Z","timestamp":1495609779000},"page":"986-991","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["Berlin Grading System Can Stratify the Onset and Predict Perioperative Complications in Adult Moyamoya Disease"],"prefix":"10.1227","volume":"81","author":[{"given":"Daina","family":"Kashiwazaki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Gradu-ate School of Medicine and Pharmaco-logical Science, University of Toyama, To-yama, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Naoki","family":"Akioka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Gradu-ate School of Medicine and Pharmaco-logical Science, University of Toyama, To-yama, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Naoya","family":"Kuwayama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Gradu-ate School of Medicine and Pharmaco-logical Science, University of Toyama, To-yama, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiyohiro","family":"Houkin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuro-surgery, Hokkaido University Graduate School of Medicine, Sapporo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcus","family":"Czabanka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin, Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Vajkoczy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin, Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Satoshi","family":"Kuroda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Gradu-ate School of Medicine and Pharmaco-logical Science, University of Toyama, To-yama, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"bib1-20231011","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"288","DOI":"10.1001\/archneur.1969.00480090076012","article-title":"Cerebrovascular \"moyamoya\" disease.
