Moyamoya disease--a review of clinical experience and anaesthetic management

SC Brown and AM Lam

Moyamoya disease is a rare neurovascular condition that affects both children and adults. Increasingly these patients present for surgical management to improve the cerebral circulation since medical therapy is essentially ineffective. Because of the precarious cerebral circulation, these patients represent an anaesthetic challenge. In this report we review the pathophysiology of moyamoya disease, summarize our experience with seven patients and discuss the anaesthetic management.
