Extracranial-intracranial bypass grafts.
An extracranial-intracranial bypass graft was established in 16 dogs. The graft was routed deep in the lateral pharyngeal space as opposed to the subcutaneous course in front of the ear, which may be hazardous. Of 10 common carotid-middle cerebral arterial bypass grafts three were still patent four and a half, six, and 11 months postoperatively. The remaining seven arterial and six venous bypas...
متن کاملExtracranial-intracranial arterial bypass surgery for occlusive carotid artery disease.
BACKGROUND The EC/IC Bypass Study Group found no benefit of extracranial to intracranial (EC/IC) bypass surgery over medical therapy in patients with symptomatic carotid artery occlusion (sCAO). However, the study was criticised for many reasons and the real effect of this treatment is still not known conclusively. OBJECTIVES To determine whether bypass surgery plus medical care is superior t...

Many treatments are proposed and carried out often at great expense and sometimes with considerable risk long before there ...
متن کاملExtracranial-intracranial bypass surgery in cerebrovascular diseases.
Since the report from the International Study on extracranial-intracranial bypass was presented in 1985, an abrupt stop to almost all bypass surgery was introduced. The clear goals of the bypass study to reduce repeated strokes based on extracranial-intracranial bypass could not be documented. This review emphasizes the drawbacks of this previous study and why its conclusions were too sweeping,...
متن کاملExtracranial-intracranial bypass, one; clinical trials, nil.
A large prospective trial published last year seemed to show that extracranial-intracranial bypass was not effective for symptomatic but conventionally inoperable extracranial vascular disease.' The trial, which was purportedly ran-domised but like all surgical trials was not blind, recruited 71 centres and 1377 randomised patients, and cost $9m. The null hypothesis was that the procedure would...
