Patient's question:
A while ago, I experienced intermittent general body weakness, which felt quite severe. So, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and found out that I have moyamoya disease. Currently, I am undergoing treatment and plan to have surgery in a short while. I would like to ask how many hours does the moyamoya surgery usually take to complete successfully?Doctor's answer:
Moyamoya disease is actually a condition that involves brain nerve damage, leading to this illness. Once this type of damage occurs multiple times, it should still be promptly controlled and stabilized. Because if this disease persists for a long time, it may lead to further brain nerve damage. The surgical process depends on the patient's condition and generally takes about several hours, with 2 to 3 hours being a common duration.
