Superficial temporal artery (STA)-superior cerebellar artery (SCA) anastomosis, and STA-posterior cerebral artery (PCA) anastomosis are considered suitable as surgical procedures for the treatment of patients with significant stenosis or occlusion in the rostral portion of the basilar artery and patients with significant stenosis or occlusion of the posterior cerebral artery, respectively. However, several authors have reported frequent and serious complications of these surgical procedures, including temporal lobe retraction edema and hematoma. In this study, we introduce a new surgical revascularization using an occipital interhemispheric transtentorial approach for the treatment of severe stenosis of the rostral portion of the basilar artery.
