   Extractions: Those were my exact words when I first heard of MoyaMoya in June 2001. I spent the next two months searching the internet for everything I could find on MoyaMoya Disease. My name is DJ and I've been "blessed" with MoyaMoya. If you're here, it's probably because you're like me and came to the internet to find out more about this rare disorder. If you're like me, you also didn't have much success looking through the search engines. There's not a huge amount of information out there huh? Well, that's all about to change! Probably the worst part about being diagnosed with a rare disease (especially an estimated 1 in 2,000,000 disease in the USA) is thinking you are the only one in the world who is dealing with the problems associated with the disease. I hope to change all that! I would like to build the world's largest support group for family members and those that suffer from MoyaMoya.

   Extractions: Internet support for those diagnosed with Moyamoya Disease What is Moyamoya Disease? Moyamoya is an extremely rare disorder in most parts of the world except in Japan. The pathogenesis of Moyamoya disease is unknown. Moyamoya disease is characterized by progressive intracranial vascular stenoses of the circle of Willis, resulting in successive ischemic events. The condition leads to irreversible blockage of the main blood vessels to the brain as they enter into the skull. It is a disease that tends to affect children and adults in the third to fourth decades of life. In children it tends to cause strokes or seizures. In adults it tends to cause bleeding or strokes. The clinical features are cerebral ischaemia (strokes), recurrent transient ischaemic attacks (TIA's or "mini strokes"), sensorimotor paralysis (numbness in the extremeties), convulsions and/or migraine-like headaches. The process of blockage (vascular occlusion) once it begins tends to continue despite any known medical management unless treated with surgery. The repeated strokes can lead to severe functional impairment or even death so that it is important to recognize these lesions and treat them early on. Without treatment, there is progressive deterioration of neurologic function and re-hemorrhage.

    Extractions: 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 is the prognosis?

    Extractions: In 1950's, Japanese leading neurosurgeons at that time began to notice the new clinical entity of moyamoya disease. Since its etiology was unknown, it was named in various ways, such as moyamoya disease, chiri-chiri disease, etc. Moyamoya disease is now officially named in Japan as "the spontaneous occlusion of the circle of Willis." The terminal portions of the intracranial internal carotid arteries progressively become stenotic (narrowing) or occlusive. Due to reduced blood flow to the brain, tiny collateral vessels at the base of the brain enlarge to become as collateral pathways. These vessels are called "moyamoya vessels" because the angiographic appearance of these vessels resemble the "cloud" or "puff" of the cigarette smoke, which is described as "moya-moya" in Japanese language ( Suzuki J, Takaku A Symptoms of moyamoya disease include brain ischaemia and hemorrhage. There are two peaks in age distribution: below 10 and at 30-40 years old, with the highest peak in the first decade and lower peak in the adults. Under the age of 10, brain ischemia (transient ischemic attack and cerebral infarction) is common whilst brain hemorrhage is more common at the age of 30-40 years old.

    Extractions: My wife was diagnosed with moyamoya in 1983. She has severe migraine headaches and is currently taking Fiornal with codeine for them. Is there another medication available which would help to control the headaches? Also, what is a general prognosis for a female currently aged 48. Any help will be appreciated.
