Moya-Moya disease is a rare progressive chronic cer-ebrovascular disease characterized by a narrowing of the lumen of the intracranial segments of the internal carotid arteries, as well as the initial segments of the anterior and middle cerebral arteries with the devel-opment of a network of small vascular anastomoses. Violations of blood supply due to occlusion lead to the development of ischemic strokes in the correspond-ing pools, and ruptures of vascular anastomoses - to the development of hemorrhagic strokes, causing a variety of neurological disorders. The article presents a clinical case of Moya-Moya disease in a 31-year-old patient. The disease was manifested by acute disorders of cerebral circulation in ischemic and hemorrhagic types. The diagnosis was made in accordance with the diagnostic criteria of the disease based on the data of endovascular cerebral angiography.

Moyamoya disease is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular disease characterized by bilateral occlusion or stenosis of arteries around circle of Willis. We report a case of 18-year-old female presented with recurrent episodes of headache and vertigo. On cerebral angiography, the patient was diagnosed to have moyamoya disease. On further evaluation, thrombophilia profile showed increased homocysteine level. The patient was treated conservatively with cobalamin and aspirin and advised for revascularization. According to the literature, there are few case reports of moyamoya disease with thrombotic disorders. Hence, we are reporting this interesting and rare case.

Abstract The current literature regarding the morphology and presentations of strokes due to basilar artery stenosis/occlusion is limited. This pathology is a rare cause of stroke and its management is not clearly decided in guidelines or published literature. Moreover, posterior circulation strokes are reported to be more devastating than anterior circulation. We present a case of a 68-year-old male who presented in an acute setting with reduced consciousness, myoclonic jerks, weakness and nausea due to a stroke from an occluded mid-segment basilar artery. MRI showed evidence of left cerebellar and right occipital infarcts. Emergent cerebral angiography was performed, and he was immediately treated by thrombectomy and stenting (Stryker Wingspan stent). The patient made a full recovery within one week and remained well at follow-up 3 months post-procedure. Emergency recanalization of basilar artery strokes, by clot retrieval and stenting, should be considered as a treatment option.
