Recurrent Headaches and Moyamoya Syndrome in a Non-Asian Descendant: A Case Report.

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare yet progressive cerebrovascular disorder caused by the constriction of arteries, which leads to the twisting and tangling of small arteries in the brain, ultimately causing blockages. Although moyamoya angiopathy (MMA) has been known for almost six decades, its pathophysiology remains unknown, posing challenges to timely diagnosis. Moyamoya syndrome (MMS) refers to the association of MMA with various diseases, including infections, tumors, arteriovenous malformations, radiation treatment, and hereditary disorders.
