Patient's question:
I have a brain-related illness and have been receiving treatment. Recently, I had a thorough examination, and the results showed that it is moyamoya disease. Now, I would like to ask for consultation on what moyamoya disease is.Doctor's answer:
Smoking disease is a rare cerebrovascular disease, first discovered and named by Japanese people in the 1950s. Due to the progressive narrowing or impaired blood flow in the main branch vessels of the bilateral cerebral arterial circle, abnormal fibrosis of the vascular network at the base of the skull occurs, forming an abnormal collateral vascular network. During cerebral angiography, many densely clustered small blood vessels are observed. This disease requires rest and avoiding excessive fatigue to prevent it from affecting the condition.
