Moyamoya disease is a rare condition causing progressive narrowing of brain arteries. This review covers its clinical signs, imaging, and characteristic "puff of smoke" angiographic appearance.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Vascular Medicine
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Moyamoya disease is an idiopathic progressive vasculopathy.
  • Characterized by progressive narrowing of the distal internal carotid artery and proximal circle of Willis.
  • Collateral vessels form to compensate for stenosis, creating a characteristic angiographic appearance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the clinical manifestations of Moyamoya disease.
  • To discuss the key imaging findings associated with the condition.
  • To describe the distinct angiographic features of Moyamoya disease.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of Moyamoya disease.
  • Analysis of clinical presentation data.
  • Evaluation of diagnostic imaging and angiography.

Main Results:

  • Moyamoya disease presents with progressive stenosis of major cerebral arteries.
  • Characteristic collateral vessels form, appearing as a 'puff of smoke' on angiography.
  • Clinical symptoms vary, often related to ischemic events or hemorrhage.

Conclusions:

  • Moyamoya disease requires accurate diagnosis through clinical, imaging, and angiographic evaluation.
  • Understanding its features is crucial for appropriate patient management.
  • This review provides a comprehensive overview for clinicians and researchers.
