What are the treatment methods for moyamoya disease?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. What are the treatment methods for moyamoya disease?

Doctor's answer:

One type of cerebrovascular disease is called moyamoya disease, named after the smoky shadows it appears as on imaging scans. It is seen in conditions such as cerebral thrombosis and cerebral hemorrhage. The treatment approach for such conditions is tailored based on the results of the examination and the symptoms presented. If the condition is related to thrombosis, antithrombotic therapy is required. If it involves hemorrhagic symptoms, medication and intracranial pressure reduction treatments are necessary.
