Moyamoya disease in patient with multiple sclerosis

الملخص EN

Moyamoya disease is a rare progressive disease characterized by irreversible cerebrovascular occlusion.

The occlusion would lead to an opening of transcortical, transdural collateral vessels.

As a sequelae of this occlusion, ischemic and rarely hemorrhagic stroke happen leading to significant brain damage.

We present a unique case of a 16-year-old female with a history of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis presented with recurrent ischemic stroke secondary to Moyamoya disease.

MRI/MRA of this patient shows the typical features of Moyamoya disease
