Severe MCA stroke without MCA occlusion?

Effect of STA-MCA anastomosis on the course of experimental acute MCA embolic occlusion.

The experiments in this report were designed to evaluate the effect of superficial temporal-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis on the course of middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion by emboli while avoiding a vessel clipping technique as well as the use of long-acting barbiturate anesthesia. Dogs were divided into 3 general groups: A) embolus placement 1 h following anastomosis; B) e...

Double STA-MCA Anatomosis for Bilateral Carotid Occlusion

Complete occlusion of both internal carotid arteries (ICA) is rare, particulary in young or middle-aged patients. We present a case of a middle-aged male with complete occlusion of both ICA who underwent bilateral superficial temporal artery (STA) to middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis. Bilateral STA-MCA anastomosis is not commonly reported as a management for cerebroocclusive diseases in ...
