Svensk definition
Mikrokirurgisk revaskularisering (återställande av blodkärl) i syfte att förbättra den intrakraniella cirkulationen. Det innebär vanligen att det yttre blodomloppet kopplas ihop med det innanför skall benet, men också eventuell extrakraniell revaskularisering (dvs subklavikulär-vertebralartärbypass; subklavikulär-carotis externa bypass). Detta görs genom sammankoppling av två artärer (direkt anasto mos) eller genom autolog transplantation av kärlrik vävnad till hjärnans yta.
Engelsk definition
Microsurgical revascularization to improve intracranial circulation. It usually involves joining the extracranial circulation to the intracranial circulation but may include extracranial revascularization (e.g., subclavian-vertebral artery bypass, subclavian-external carotid artery bypass). It is performed by joining two arteries (direct anastomosis or use of graft) or by free autologous transplantation of highly vascularized tissue to the surface of the brain.
