ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular disease mainly existing in the Asian population, which can be divided into unilateral and bilateral types. Contralateral progression has been reported in pediatric patients with unilateral MMD, while large series about contralateral progression in Chinese adult patients were rare. The goal of this study is to elucidate the clinical features and incidence of contralateral progression in Chinese MMD adult patients.METHODS:
One hundred one Chinese adult patients with unilateral MMD who received surgery treatments between January 2015 and January 2017 in our hospital were enrolled in this study. This study contained 89 patients. Digital subtraction angiography was performed in all patients for initial diagnosis, and magnetic resonance angiography was repeated 6 months from the initial operation and then annually. Clinical characteristics, contralateral progression, and risk factors were studied. Previous related studies were also reviewed and meta-analyzed.RESULTS:
Of these 89 patients, contralateral progression was identified in 8 patients (9.0%) within a median follow-up period of 63 months, which was lower than that in previous studies (25.9%). Single-factor analysis and multivariate analysis did not reveal significant risk factors related to the contralateral progression.CONCLUSION:
The progress rate in this cohort of Chinese adult patients with unilateral MMD after revascularization was 9.0%, which indicates that some of the unilateral MMD were an early form of bilateral MMD rather than a separate condition.
