Article Synopsis
- Moyamoya syndrome (MMS) is a serious brain condition caused by narrowing of the internal carotid arteries, often linked to other disorders like Down syndrome and sickle cell anemia, and can lead to strokes and seizures.
- This report highlights a unique case of a 19-year-old female with partial trisomy 13, involving duplications in specific chromosome regions, who developed bilateral MMS and suffered from severe neurological issues and multiple strokes in early childhood.
- The case emphasizes the need for further research to understand the relationships between mitochondrial damage, MMS, and epilepsy in patients with chromosomal abnormalities.
