Clinical features and treatment outcomes in patients in their twenties with ischemic moyamoya disease
Patients in their 20s with ischemic MMD always exhibit misery perfusion in the affected hemisphere, unlike older patients, and sometimes develop cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome after combined revascularization surgery, leading to cognitive decline, similar to older patients. Moreover, indirect revascularization surgery alone forms sufficient collateral circulation and restores cognitive function in patients in their 20s, similar to older patients.
