 The concept of “watershed shift”(WS)has been proposed as a cause of the ischemic complications following a superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery(STA-MCA)bypass operation performed for the management of moyamoya disease. Previous reports have observed that only 1.2-5.7% of the patients who underwent a bypass operation for the management of moyamoya disease developed cerebral infarction secondary to the WS phenomenon. To date, the WS phenomenon has not been objectively proven on imaging studies. We describe a 39-year-old woman who presented with right facial palsy and aphasia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed cerebral infarction in the left frontal lobe secondary to moyamoya disease. Three days after undergoing the left STA-MCA bypass procedure, she showed deterioration in aphasia secondary to the occurrence of cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome(CHPS). Diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI)performed on postoperative day(POD)1 and 5 showed no area of high signal intensity. DWI performed on POD 8 showed an area of high signal intensity in the deep white matter of the left parietal lobe outside the range of the craniotomy. Postoperative fusion images of computed tomography angiography and DWI performed on POD 8 showed that the blood flow through the MCA from the bypass graft and that through the posterior cerebral artery crossed each other at the surface of the subcortical infarction. In the present case, the WS could be directly confirmed on imaging studies, and the cerebral infarction may have occurred secondary to WS concomitant with CHPS. Clinicians need to be aware of the WS phenomenon even after performing a direct bypass to treat adults with moyamoya disease.
