Patient's question:
Previously, there were no symptoms, but a thorough examination revealed that I have moyamoya disease. I don't know what to do and would like to ask how to treat moyamoya disease.Doctor's answer:
Smoking disease is typically treated by expanding blood vessels to reduce intracranial pressure, medication, and symptomatic treatment for cases with a clear etiology. Active surgical intervention is highly recommended. Smoking disease surgery can be divided into direct bypass or gradual bypass. Postoperative prognosis is generally good, and thrombosis treatment is usually the preferred option for patients with infarction. Treating this condition requires adopting the correct treatment based on careful examination results. Generally, it involves accelerating blood flow, expanding blood vessels, reducing intracranial pressure, medication, and symptomatic treatment, with the goal of identifying and addressing the underlying cause. The etiology of this disease is not easily understood and may be related to allergies. Surgical treatment may be necessary if needed. A characteristic of this disease is recurrent transient episodes of collapse or weakness, with full recovery of motor function after recurrence.
