КЛИНИЧЕСКИЕ ПРОЯВЛЕНИЯ ДЕБЮТА И ПРОБЛЕМЫ ДИАГНОСТИКИ БОЛЕЗНИ МОЯМОЯ В ДЕТСКОМ ВОЗРАСТЕ

Abstract

Moyamoya disease in children is a rarely diagnosed entity. Frequent headache is the first symptom of the disease. Headache associated with moya-moya disease (HAMD) is a separated entity reported in the literature. Variants of onset, a spectrum of primary diagnoses and diagnosis verification rate of moyamoya disease in 7 children are presented. A clinical case of moya-moya disease in a 9-year boy, who was primarily diagnosed with migraine with aura, is reported. The results presented by the authors as well as literature data indicate the necessity of using magnetic-resonance angiography in children with headache attacks and focal neurologic symptoms to identify this progressive vascular pathology and timely recommend a surgical treatment. © 2016, Media Sphera.
