However, no prior studies have documented the long-term response of PHACES patients with moyamoya disease to surgical revascularization with pial or myosynangiosis. The authors present their experience with 8 consecutive patients with PHACES and moyamoya disease.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Retrospective review of patients who underwent pial synangiosis revascularization for moyamoya disease with concurrent diagnosis of PHACES.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 8 patients out of 456 surgically treated moyamoya patients had a diagnosis of PHACES. All patients were female, and their average age at the time of surgical treatment was 9.3 years (range 1.8\u201325.8 years). Five patients had associated basilar artery anomalies or stenosis. All patients had symptomatic narrowing of the petrous segment of the internal carotid artery with tortuous collateralization. Three patients underwent unilateral pial or myo-synangiosis and 5 underwent bilateral procedures. The average hospital length of stay was 5.0 days (range 3\u20137 days). There were no postoperative complications. Follow-up ranged from 8 to 160 months (average 56 months). Seven of 8 patients have had follow-up angiograms and all had Matsushima grade A or B collateralization without progression of stenosis in other locations. All patients had reduced cortical FLAIR signal on 6-month follow-up MRI and no evidence of new radiographic or clinical strokes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with moyamoya disease and PHACES had an intracranial arteriopathy characterized by ectactic anterior vasculature with concomitant basilar artery stenosis, and were all female. The patients had both radiographic and clinical responses to pial synangiosis. The surgical treatment of these patients can be challenging given facial hemangiomas located near the surgical field. Patients with unilateral disease did not have evidence of progression in other cerebral circulation during the given follow-up period.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/2018.10.peds18582","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,27]],"date-time":"2019-02-27T00:52:05Z","timestamp":1551228725000},"page":"493-497","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Moyamoya syndrome and PHACE syndrome: clinical and radiographic characterization of the intracranial arteriopathy and response to surgical revascularization"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Sarah","family":"Jernigan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Armide","family":"Storey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christine","family":"Hammer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Coleman","family":"Riordan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Darren B.","family":"Orbach","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"},{"name":"Neurointerventional Radiology, Boston Children\u2019s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.
