Although treatment paradigms are not well defined, clipping, trapping with revision bypass, and donor vessel ligation represent the most common microsurgical approaches.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CLINICAL PRESENTATION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 53-yr-old male presented with cognitive decline, left extremity weakness, and left visual field blurriness. Computed tomographic angiography of head\/neck demonstrated bilateral cervical internal carotid artery occlusion and magnetic resonance imaging of brain showed a small right parieto-occipital lobe infarct. The patient's symptoms worsened despite aggressive medical management. Therefore, a right superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass was performed for flow augmentation. Follow-up digital subtraction angiography (DSA) approximately 1 yr after surgery noted 2 new aneurysms adjacent to the patent STA-MCA anastomosis. Perfusion imaging at that time showed persistently reduced blood flow in the left cerebral hemisphere. A left STA-MCA bypass was performed, and intraoperative blood flow measurements showed this to be a high-flow bypass. Follow-up DSA 4 mo later demonstrated involution of the right STA-MCA bypass and occlusion of the anastomosis-associated aneurysms with increased perfusion of the right cerebral hemisphere via collateral blood flow from the patent high-flow left STA-MCA bypass. At 7 mo following left STA-MCA bypass, the patient's neurological examination remained stable and perfusion imaging showed improved blood flow in the left cerebral hemisphere.<\/jats:p>\n
