Moyamoya Disease CEREBROVASCULAR PROGRAM CEREBROVASCULAR DIAGNOSES INDEX What is moyamoya disease? Moyamoya disease is characterized by the spontaneous occlusion of one or usually both internal carotid arteries in the intracranial region resulting in the formation of a fine network of neovascularity (blood vessel growth) at the base of the brain. The term "moyamoya" was introduced to describe the hazy, puff-of-smoke appearance of the neovascularization that develops. This condition has a higher incidence in Japan, but may be found in all nationalities. This disease has two age peaks: juvenile ( <10 years) and adult (3rd decade). What conditions is moyamoya disease associated with? Neurofibromatosis Tuberous sclerosis Sickle cell anemia Meningitis Retinitis pigmentosa Fibromuscular dysplasia Atherosclerosis Down's syndrome Fanconi's anemia Following radiation therapy to the skull base in children What are the symptoms or moyamoya disease? In children: Ischemic symptoms, consisting of recurrent, sometimes alternating episodes of focal cerebral deficit, especially weakness but also speech and sensory symptoms. These are the most typical symptoms.

Children often present with stroke or recurrent transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), frequently accompanied by hemiparesis (muscular weakness or paralysis affecting one side of the body) or seizures. Adults most often experience stroke (often a hemorrhage). Both children and adults may have disturbed consciousness, speech deficits (aphasia), sensory and cognitive impairments, involuntary movements, and vision problems.

AANS Scientific Journals Neurosurgical Focus, November 1998 Moyamoya Disease Introduction by Haruhiko Kikuchi, M.D. and Susumu Miyamoto, M.D. Moyamoya disease is frequently familial and may occur in monozygotic twins. A family history of moyamoya disease can be found in no more than 10.0% of cases. It has been also reported that there is a significant association of the human leukocyte antigen B51 in patients with this disease.[2] These findings suggest that some genetic factors possibly take part in the pathogenesis. However, the paucity of clinical materials for investigations has not allowed a direct determination of the pathogenesis of moyamoya disease. One of the most prominent features of moyamoya disease is the progressive intimal thickening of the intracranial arterial trunks. Although intimal thickening is also demonstrated in arteriosclerotic cerebrovascular disease, few lipid deposits in the thickened intima and enfolded elastica interna are characteristically observed in moyamoya disease, which indicates that the pathogenesis is different in these two diseases.[6] Authors of previous investigations have demonstrated the possible roles of such substance as transforming growth factor-beta-1 and platelet-derived growth factor in the pathogenesis of this disease.[1,5,11,12] Further investigations are necessary to elucidate the pathogenesis of moyamoya disease.

The carotid arteries constrict down to a tiny size that is inadequate to maintain blood flow to the brain, or they can become completely occluded. To attempt to compensate for the lack of blood flow from the carotids, new small arteries grow in an abnormal pattern along the base of the brain. The new arteries are quite small on angiography (a blood vessel xray study), and appear similar to a "puff of smoke," which is what the term moyamoya means in Japanese. Momamoya disease was first described in Japan. Children with moyamoya disease can develop stroke-like symptoms. To minimize loss of neurological function, surgery is recommended for some children. The goal of the surgery is to use blood vessels from the scalp (the superficial temporal arteries) to establish new blood flow for the brain. This procedure is called pial synangiosis, and can be effective in brain revascularization.

An extensive network of anastomoses forms between branches of the carotid arteries, resulting in a characteristic angiographic appearance. The condition may be idiopathic (classic moyamoya disease) or occur in association with ANEMIA, SICKLE CELL DOWN SYNDROME CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA RADIOTHERAPY induced arterial injury; NEUROFIBROMATOSIS ; and other diseases. Clinical manifestations include hemiparesis, headache, seizures, and delayed mental development. In older individuals, this disease may present as SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE .

Radiology-Pathology Teaching File Case26 Recurrent Focal Neurologic Deficits Clinical Information: This 15-year-old white female who was otherwise normal presents with right-sided hemiparesis. Symptoms began approximately 10 days prior to evaluation and involved the right foot, arm and right side of the face. After a throrough history was obtained, it was discovered that the patient has had headaches associated with bilateral hand numbness in the past. T1/Gd MRA MRA/Gd MRI Findings: Displayed are MRI and MRA images from this patient. The axial and sagittal T1 images show an abnormal flow voids within the region of the basal ganglia, and probably some subacute hemorrhage, secondary to ischemia/infarction on the left. The T2 weighted axial image shows a focal area of ischemic infarction, corresponding to the small area of subacute hemorrhage in the left basal ganglia near the internal capsule (accounting for the patient's most recent stroke). The post Gd T1W coronal image shows some enhancement in this most recent area of ischemic infarction. Lastly, two MRA studies, 3D TOF with MT, pre and post Gd, demonstrate complete occlusion of both internal carotid arteries at their supraclinoid location. (Note the anatomic definition of the venous structures shining through on post Gd sagittal image). The posterior circulation is relatively intact. The patient underwent cerebral angiography for therapeutic planning and has received a pial synangiosis procedure discussed below. She is doing well.

Is there any treatment? There is no cure for moyamoya disease. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive. Individuals experiencing TIAs and stroke may be given aspirin, vasodilators, or anticoagulants to reduce the risk of future attacks. There are several different types of revascularization (restoration of blood supply) surgery that may be performed in some cases. Children usually respond better to revascularization surgery than adults. What research is being done? Within the NINDS research programs, moyamoya disease is addressed primarily through studies associated with TIA and stroke. NINDS is the leading supporter of research on stroke and TIA in the United States and sponsors studies ranging from clinical trials to investigations of basic biological mechanisms.
