ABSTRACT

The cerebral vascular anastomosis of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery surgery is a procedure that, although considered highly specialized in the neurosurgery field, should be performed to perfection by general neurosurgeons. The authors of this technical note we want to show the technique used at the Institute Akita-Noken of Japan and the most important points for our consideration on such surgery to be practiced by residents during their training and medical specialists in neurosurgery at order to avoid any difficulties while performing this procedure and increase the chances of success for the surgical team and patients.
