Talk:Moyamoya disease

message: I am not a neurologist/neuroradiologist/neurosurgeon and so feel I should not update the page, however the interchanging of Moya moya syndrome and Moya Moya disease is, I believe, incorrect - the former being a collection of diseases (usually vasculitidies) leading to arterial occlusion and secondary rerouting of blood flow via tiny collaterals, and the latter being a particular primary disease process (although of idiopathic aetiology).

thread_title: Moya Moya Syndrome vs Disease 

message: What is the correct way to write the name of this disease? I see "Moya Moya", "MoyaMoya" and "Moyamoya." For example, this article is titled "Moya Moya" but throughout the text it is spelled "Moyamoya." 128.255.247.108 01:03, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I have seen documentation of a patient with MoyaMoya with stenosis of the superior mesenteric artery. Does the progression of MoyaMoya eventually lead to the inclusion of blood vessels not directly associated with brain function? Thanks. Coding for the Weekend (talk) 15:26, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Stenosis of the superior mesenteric artery?

message: How can it be stated that this is an inherited condition?  Dr. Scott, a leading expert in Moyamoya, states "a genetically transmitted form of moyamoya is rare in the Western Hemisphere." 'http://www.childrenshospital.org/az/Site1317/mainpageS1317P0.html Out of the over 300 patients he has seen, only 19 (coming from 12 families) have been related.  
As far as the question above about other blood vessels, there are several documented cases of renal arteries also being affect.  http://www.ajronline.org/cgi/content/full/183/1/119  Ksanchezs (talk) 15:41, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Symptoms 

message: I once read about a treatment called omental transplantation. It involves slicing part of the omentum in the abdomen into a long strip, leaving one end attached to the stomach. The strip is then pulled upwards, underneath the skin, and into the skull, laid out so it covers the brain or the starved hemisphere, and sutured to the dura mater. Would it be worth mentioning? I don't know if that treatment is still used.

message: The word "Moyamoya" itself does not mean "puff of smoke". It is a mimetic word that depicts a sense of vagueness or haziness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Axiom of translation (talk • contribs) 15:06, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
