ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical characteristics and digital subtract angiography (DSA) manifestations of the hemorrhagic moyamoya disease in adults. Methods A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data and DSA imaging of 68 adult patients who had been diagnosed with intracerebral hemorrhage on CT and with moyamoya on DSA. Results They were 23 males and 45 females with an average of 37.8 years. Their DSA manifestations included bilateral lesions on the anterior cerebral circulation in 57 cases, 19 of whom had combined lesions on the posterior cerebral circulation; unilateral lesion on the anterior cerebral circulation in 9 cases, 6 of whom had combined lesions on the posterior cerebral circulation; simple lesions on the posterior cerebral circulation in 2 cases;simple lesions on the anterior cerebral circulation in 41 cases.Intracranial aneurysm was complicated in 11 cases, 7 of whom underwent aneurysm embolization or clipping of the aneurysm neck. Cerebral infarction was complicated in 13 cases. Repeated hemorrhage for twice or more occurred in 17 cases.Ventricle hemorrhage occurred in 59 cases, parenchymal hemorrhage in 7 cases, and subarachnoid hemorrhage in 2 cases. Craniotomy was performed in 6 cases of massive intracranial bleeding.Conclusions Adult patients with hemorrhagic moyamoya disease, particular middle-aged women,usually have a major manifestation of intraventricular hemorrhage. Surgical interventions for combined aneurysms and symptoms can achieve a good therapeutic effect, but it is difficult to prevent re-hemorrhage.DSA is the primary method to determine specific characteristics of moyamoya lesions and consequently to choose a proper treatment.
