Journal Title: GUJARAT CANCER SOCIETY RESEARCH JOURNAL - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Moyamoya disease is a condition that results from bilateral stenosis or obstruction of the intracranial arteries at the base of the brain that usually presents as recurrent strokes in children. Children present with cerebral ischemia, while adults with intraventricular haemorrhages.The surgical procedure EDAS (Encephalo-duro-arteriosynangiosis) is often complicated by cerebral ischemia, so goal in perioperative period is to maintain the balance between oxygen supply and demand in the brain. This report presents three cases of Moyadisease.
