Brief summary

Little is known about how general anesthesia-induced decrease in cerebral blood flow in pediatric moyamoya pateints. We investigated this question in patients undergoing moyamoya surgery, hypothesizing that cardiorespiratory changes during this procedure would reduce cerebral perfusion.
