Reports on patients with moyamoya disease presenting cerebral ischemic complications after the onset of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and/or intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are limited. Herein, we report a case of a 7-year-old girl with moyamoya disease with severe cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral infarction following an IVH. Although the case is rare, the potential for vasospasm-induced cerebral infarction should be carefully considered and thus, intensive treatment should be immediately initiated.

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) polymorphisms are known risk factors for vascular diseases due to the impact on folate metabolism dysfunction and homocysteine (Hcy) accumulation. This study aimed to investigate the association between folate metabolism risk and hemorrhagic risk in moyamoya disease (MMD). In this prospective study, we enrolled 350 MMD patients with complete genotype data for MTHFR and MTRR.

Objectives: Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cerebrovascular condition, and it is a well-known risk factor of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). While IV thrombolysis (IVT) is an established treatment for patients with AIS, its efficacy and safety for patients with MMD is largely unknown.
Methods: This was a large retrospective analysis of the 2016-2021 Nationwide Readmissions Database in the United States.

Background: Concentric vessel-wall contrast enhancement (VW-CE) of the terminal carotid artery and its proximal branches may be linked to ischemic strokes, disease activity and progression in Moyamoya disease (MMD). The objective of this retrospective cohort study is to analyze the association between VW-CE and perioperative acute ischemic stroke (PAIS) occurring within 24 h after revascularization.
Methods: All previously untreated MMD patients who required revascularization and who had undergone preoperative MRI with VW-CE-sequences were included.

Objective: The optimal timing of bypass surgery for patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) or moyamoya syndrome (MMS) following an acute stroke episode remains unclear, mainly owing to the risk of postoperative complications. In this study, we aim to validate the safety and efficacy of early intervention using multiple burr hole (MBH) and erythropoietin (EPO) therapy, thereby refining the management strategy for patients with acute stroke episode of MMD or MMS.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 70 patients with MMD or MMS who underwent MBH and EPO therapy.
