Abstract
After EDMS, a considerable degree of neurological recovery was observed in our patient with rare unilateral MMD mimicking intracranial hemorrhage. We found that the progression of clinical improvement after indirect revascularization in our case was due to EDMS. Surgical treatment with EDMS is reasonable for MMD because it allows for flexible revascularization that adequately addresses the requirement for new blood supply in the ischemic lesion. The EDMS procedure is followed by an observation period to preclude the possibility of the patient developing definite MMD.
