Scott et al presents the largest series available regarding the surgical treatment of childhood moyamoya. 143 enrolled subjects were characterized based on epidemiological factors and symptoms at presentation and subsequently underwent pial synangiosis. Long term postsurgical followup revealed the efficacy of pial synangiosis in the treatment of childhood moyamoya.

The literature regarding direct, indirect and combined surgical procedures was reviewed. Patient characteristics, presenting symptoms, indications for surgery and outcomes of surgery were reported in a pooled analysis. The authors concluded that surgical revascularization was indeed efficacious. Although direct and combined procedures resulted in superior revascularization based of postoperative radiographic evidence, clinical outcomes were not statistically different.
