title: To explore the effectiveness of atorvastatin in the postoperative formation of collateral blood vessels after encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis in patients with moyamoya disease: a prospective double-blind randomized controlled study
abstract: Introduction The aim of this large, prospective, double-blind randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effect of atorvastatin on the formation of collateral blood vessels in patients after encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS) and to provide a theoretical basis for clinical drug intervention. Specifically, we will determine whether atorvastatin has an effect on the development of collateral vascularization and on cerebral blood perfusion after revasculoplasty in patients with moyamoya
