BACKGROUND:Cerebral hyperperfusion (CHP) is a potential complication of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis for moyamoya disease (MMD), and optimal postoperative management has not yet been established. Minocycline, a neuroprotective antibiotic agent, plays a role in blocking matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), which contributes to edema formation and hemorrhagic conversion after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. Patients with MMD have been shown to have increased serum MMP-9 levels.OBJECTIVE:To examine the effect of minocycline on the prevention of postoperative CHP after STA-MCA anastomosis for MMD.METHODS:N-isopropyl-p-[I-123]iodoamphetamine single-photon emission computed tomography was performed 1 and 7 days after STA-MCA anastomosis on 109 hemispheres in 86 consecutive patients with MMD (ages, 9-69 years; mean, 37.2 years). Postoperative systolic blood pressure was strictly maintained at lower than 130 mm Hg in all 109 surgeries. The most 60 recent hemispheres were managed by the intraoperative and postoperative intravenous administration of minocycline hydrochloride (200 mg/d). The incidence of focal neurological deterioration (FND) due to CHP was then compared with that in 36 patients undergoing 49 surgeries managed without minocycline.RESULTS:FND due to CHP was observed in 4 operated hemispheres in patients treated without minocycline (4/49, 8.16%), and in none in the minocycline-treated group (0/60) (P = .0241). Multivariate analysis revealed that minocycline administration (P < .001), surgery on the left hemisphere (P = .031), and a smaller recipient artery diameter (P < .001) significantly correlated with FND due to CHP.CONCLUSION:The administration of minocycline with strict blood pressure control may represent secure and effective postoperative management to prevent symptomatic CHP after STA-MCA anastomosis for MMD.ABBREVIATIONS:CBF, cerebral blood flowCHP, cerebral hyperperfusionEC-IC, extracranial-intracranialEDMS, encephaloduromyosynangiosisFND, focal neurological deterioration(123)I-IMP-SPECT,N-isopropyl-p-[I-123]iodoamphetamine single-photon emission computed tomographyMCA, middle cerebral arteryMMD, moyamoya diseaseMMP-9, matrix metalloproteinase 9MRA, magnetic resonance angiographySPECT, single-photon emission computed tomographySTA-MCA, superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery
