Angiographic features and progression risk factors in children with asymptomatic moyamoya disease
Angiographic features in children with asymptomatic moyamoya disease resemble those observed in the hemorrhagic pediatric patients, indicating that greater attention should be focused on the risk of future hemorrhage in these patients, rather than on ischemia. Additionally, studies have demonstrated a correlation between posterior cerebral artery involvement and age with the incidence of hemorrhage. Monitoring angiographic characteristics may assist in tracking the transition from asymptomatic to symptomatic hemispheres.
