Moyamoya disease, first reported by Japanese scholars Suzuki and TaKaKu in 1969, is a bilateral disease of unknown etiology. A cerebrovascular disease characterized by chronic progressive stenosis or occlusion of the end of the internal carotid artery, the anterior cerebral artery and the origin of the middle cerebral artery, and secondary to the formation of an abnormal vascular network at the base of the skull. Because this abnormal vascular network at the base of the skull resembles “smog” on cerebral angiography images, it is called “moyamoya disease”.
Cerebrovascular reconstruction surgery is one of the more high-end, delicate and high-level operations in neurosurgery. The successful operation of this operation shows that the level of cerebrovascular disease diagnosis and treatment of neurosurgery in Jinan People’s Hospital is gradually improving. It has brought good news and hope to patients with moyamoya disease in Laiwu District.
