However, direct bypass surgery is often technically difficult for infants due to their small blood vessels. Here, we describe our technique to resolve the technical challenges encountered during superficial temporal artery-to-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass surgery in infants aged <1 year with MMD, focusing on specific procedures.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n\nCase Description: <\/jats:title>\nWe performed bilateral STA-MCA and indirect bypass in a 1-year-old girl with MMD and cerebral infarction. Before treatment, a peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) was placed to avoid ischemic attacks associated with crying, dehydration, and malnutrition. All examinations and procedures that would be stressful to the patient, such as blood examinations, were performed using PICC or under sedation. The STA-MCA diameters were 0.8 and 1.2 mm, respectively. After suturing the planned anastomosis with one stitch using an 11-0 monofilament nylon thread, the thread was lifted upward, and the arterial wall was incised. Anastomosis was performed using an 11-0 monofilament nylon thread with 2\u20134 stitches on each side. The operation was completed without patency problems. Postoperative blood flow improved, and the patient had a good treatment course.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n\nConclusion: <\/jats:title>\nDirect bypass for MMD patients aged <1 year is technically challenging; however, the vessels can be connected if the procedure is carefully performed with consideration of the characteristics of the infant\u2019s
