dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to investigate the use of a radial artery graft for bypass of the maxillary artery (MA) to the proximal middle cerebral artery (MCA) as an alternative to superficial temporal artery-to-MCA anastomosis or extracranial carotid-to-MCA bypass using long grafts. METHODS: Five adult cadavers were used bilaterally. After a frontotemporal craniotomy and a zygomatic arch osteotomy, the MA was found easily 1 to 2 cm inferior to the infratemporal crest. A hole was created with a 4-mm-tip drill in the sphenoid bone 2 to 3 mm lateral to the foramen rotundum extradurally, and the dura over the hole was opened. After the carotid and sylvian cisterns had been opened, the M2 segment of the MCA was exposed. The graft was passed through the hole to reach the M2 segment. Then, the MA was freed from the surrounding tissue and was transected before the infraorbital artery branch. The radial artery graft was anastomosed end-to-end to the MA proximally and end-to-side to the M2 segment of the MCA distally. RESULTS: The mean thickness of the MA before the infraorbital artery branch was 2.6 × 0.3 mm. The mean thickness of the largest trunk of the MCA was 2.3 ± 0.3 mm. The average length of the graft was 36 ± 5.5 mm. CONCLUSION: MA-to-MCA bypass is as feasible as proximal MCA revascularization using long vein grafts. The thickness of the MA provides sufficient flow; the length of the graft is short, and it has a straight course. MA-to-proximal MCA bypass may be an alternative to superficial temporal artery-to-MCA as well as extracranial carotid-to-MCA bypasses.en_US
