Children with moyamoya disease require coordinated care. Treatment includes pial synangiosis surgery, which helps reduce the risk of stroke. http://www.chop.edu/neurosurgery
Children with moyamoya disease have narrowing of the carotid arteries, which feed oxygen-rich blood to the brain. This restriction of blood flow to the brain can result in pediatric stroke.
Neurosurgeons at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia have expertise in pial synangiosis (also called indirect bypass), a surgery for moyamoya disease. In this surgery, an artery from the scalp is rerouted onto the brain and over time grows “roots” — new blood vessels to feed the brain.
Moyamoya disease requires care not only from a neurosurgeon, but also from a neurologist. The Pediatric Stroke Program at CHOP, led by pediatric neurologist Rebecca Ichord, MD, offers comprehensive care from time of diagnosis. For children with moyamoya disease or other vascular disorders that raise risk of stroke, including arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and cavernomas, this team is crucial in reducing the risk of recurrence of stroke and maximizing quality of life.

Edward Robert Smith, MD, director of Pediatric Cerebrovascular Surgery at Boston Children's Hospital, illustrates Moyamoya disease and pial synangiosis, an operation developed at Boston Children’s to treat it.
Moyamoya is a disease of the blood vessels of the brain that leads to poor blood flow, oxygen starvation and potentially stroke. It is diagnosed by angiogram, on which the diseased vessels look like a “puff of smoke” (the meaning of moyamoya in Japanese).
As Dr. Smith explains in our Pediatric Playbook series, pial synangioisis takes a healthy blood vessel from the scalp and grafts it onto the surface of the brain. New blood vessels begin sprouting from it, giving the brain a new blood supply. The operation has been shown to reduce the 5-year risk of stroke from 60-90 percent to less than 4 percent.

Moyamoya disease, which is also known as Moyamoya syndrome, is a rare but very serious condition in which the walls of the internal carotid arteries—the vessels that supply blood to important areas of the brain—become thickened and narrowed. This causes the flow of oxygen-rich blood to the child's brain to gradually slow down, and makes it more likely that a blood clot will form.
This reduced blood and formation of blood clots are major risk factors for either a transient ischemic attack (TIA) also called a "mini-stroke,"or a full-fledged stroke.
"Moyamoya" means "puff of smoke" in Japanese. The disease gets its name from the wispy, tangled appearance of the new blood vessels that emerge in the brain (as the body attempts to compensate for the inadequate blood supply).
Moyamoya disease is a progressive condition, meaning that symptoms worsen over time and the child's chances of suffering a stroke increases.
The only proven treatment for is surgery to create a healthy, adequate new supply of blood for the impacted areas of the brain.
Boston Children's Hospital is one of the only centers in the world with expertise in treating Moyamoya disease. Our doctors have invented a highly effective surgical procedure called pial synangiosis to introduce a sufficient new source of blood vessel growth.

Moyamoya disease is a condition where the large vessels in the brain narrow over time. As a result, tiny vessels in the brain compensate by getting larger. Visit http://mayocl.in/2ojVQI1 for more information or to request an appointment.
As these small vessels get larger, they become stressed and stretched and can rupture leading hemorrhage in the brain which can be disabling and occasionally fatal. Bernard Bendok, M.D., chair of Neurosurgery at Mayo Clinic in Arizona, explains treatment options for the disease that could lead to a better quality of life.

This is the first video I took of Laura after her stroke from Moyamoya. She was not diagnosed with it until three months later after three strokes and a brain bleed. She was misdiagnosed as having Medium vessel vasculitis. She suffered bad headaches which became more frequent up until her stroke. She has since had a cerebral bypass and pial synangiosis surgey. She is recovering well! visit us at http://cartla2.xanga.com/

Moyamoya disease
Moyamoya syndrome is a disease in which certain arteries in the brain are constricted. Blood flow is blocked by the constriction, and also by blood clots (thrombosis).
A collateral circulation develops around the blocked vessels to compensate for the blockage, but the collateral vessels are small, weak, and prone to hemorrhage, aneurysm and thrombosis. On conventional X-ray angiography, these collateral vessels have the appearance of a "puff of smoke" (described as "もやもや (moyamoya)" in Japanese).
Etiology
About 10% of cases of moyamoya disease are familial, and some cases result from specific genetic mutations. Susceptibility to moyamoya disease-2 (MYMY2; 607151) is caused by variation in the RNF213 gene (613768) on chromosome 17q25. Moyamoya disease-5 (MYMY5; 614042) is caused by mutation in the ACTA2 gene (102620) on chromosome 10q23.3; and moyamoya disease-6 with achalasia (MYMY6; 615750) is caused by mutation in the GUCY1A3 gene (139396) on chromosome 4q32. Loci for the disorder have been mapped to chromosome 3p (MYMY1) and chromosome 8q23 (MYMY3; 608796). See also MYMY4 (300845), an X-linked recessive syndromic disorder characterized by moyamoya disease, short stature, hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, and facial dysmorphism. and linked to q25.3, on chromosome 17". (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, omim.org/entry/252350).

Boston Children's Hospital
Boston Children's Hospital is a 395-licensed-bed children's hospital in the Longwood Medical and Academic Area of Boston, Massachusetts. At 300 Longwood Avenue, Children's is adjacent both to its teaching affiliate, Harvard Medical School, and to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. (Dana-Farber and Children's jointly operate Dana-Farber/Children's Hospital Cancer Care, a 60-year-old partnership established to deliver comprehensive care to children with and survivors of all types of childhood cancers.) Children's was ranked #1 in 8 out of 10 clinical specialties by the U.S. News & World Report, and as the nation's number one pediatric hospital for 2014-15.
Overview
In 2012, for the 23rd year in a row, U.S. News & World Report rated Boston Children's Hospital one of the nation's top hospitals specializing in pediatric care. (Children's ranked in the top three of all pediatric specialty categories and number one in heart & heart surgery, neurology & neurosurgery, urology, nephrology and orthopedics.) Children's was the first stand-alone pediatric hospital in New England to be awarded Magnet status by the American Nurses Credentialing Center.

Moyamoya disease is a condition where the large vessels in the brain narrow over time. As a result, tiny vessels in the brain compensate by getting larger. Visit http://mayocl.in/2ojVQI1 for more information or to request an appointment.
As these small vessels get larger, they become stressed and stretched and can rupture leading hemorrhage in the brain which can be disabling and occasionally fatal. Bernard Bendok, M.D., chair of Neurosurgery at Mayo Clinic in Arizona, explains treatment options for the disease that could lead to a better quality of life.
