Diagnoses of interest included an unruptured intracranial aneurysm (UIA), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), carotid occlusive disease (COD), and moyamoya disease. The authors assessed trends in EC-IC bypass utilization for these diagnoses and the incidence of adverse discharges, defined as discharge to locations other than home, and the rate of mortality.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n A total of 1640 EC-IC bypass procedures were performed at 558 hospitals during the study period, with 1148 procedures at 448 hospitals performed for a diagnosis of interest. The most frequent surgical indication was moyamoya disease (65.7%, n = 754), followed by COD (23.2%, n = 266), SAH (3.2%, n = 37), and a UIA (7.9%, n = 91). EC-IC bypass utilization for COD decreased from 0.21 per 100 admissions of COD in 2010 to 0.09 per 100 admissions in 2016 (p = 0.023). The frequency of adverse discharges increased during the study period from 22.3% of annual admissions in 2008 to 31.2% in 2016 (p = 0.030) when analysis was limited to procedures performed for a diagnosis of interest. Per volume, the top 5th percentile of hospitals, on average, performed 18.4 procedures (SD 13.2) per hospital during the study period, compared to 1.3 procedures (SD 1.3) that were performed in hospitals within the bottom 95th percentile. The rate of adverse discharges was higher at low-volume institutions when compared to that at high-volume institutions (33.8% vs 28.7%; p = 0.029). Over the study period, the authors noted a trend toward a reduced percentage of total surgical volume performed at high-volume hospitals (p < 0.001).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n The authors observed a decrease in the utilization of EC-IC bypass for COD during the study period. An increase in the rate of adverse discharges was also noted, coinciding with more procedures being performed at lower-volume centers.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/2019.8.jns191401","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,13]],"date-time":"2019-12-13T20:44:19Z","timestamp":1576269859000},"page":"1821-1829","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Contemporary trends in extracranial-intracranial bypass utilization: analysis of data from 2008 to 2016"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"133","author":[{"given":"Mohammed Ali","family":"Alvi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurologic Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lorenzo","family":"Rinaldo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurologic Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Panagiotis","family":"Kerezoudis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurologic Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leonardo","family":"Rangel-Castilla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurologic Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamad","family":"Bydon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurologic Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harry","family":"Cloft","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Lanzino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurologic Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","series-title":"Neurosurgery","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"557","DOI":"10.1227\/NEU.0b013e3182621488","article-title":"Extracranial-intracranial bypass for stroke\u2014is this the end of the line or a bump in the road?","volume":"71","author":"Amin-Hanjani S","year":"2012","unstructured":"Amin-Hanjani S, Barker FG II, Charbel FT, Connolly ES Jr, Morcos JJ, Thompson BG: Extracranial-intracranial bypass for stroke\u2014is this the end of the line or a bump in the road?
