Abstract

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a relatively rare, progressively worsening steno-occlusive condition primarily characterized by a progressive narrowing of the intracranial arteries, causing hypoperfusion and consequent cerebral ischemia and infarction. This case report discusses the rare presentation of a patient who was known to have sickle cell disease and MMD. Various investigations have revealed a typical presentation of such a disease through radiological findings. Our report highlights this rare disease and its possible association with other comorbidities, as well as the medical treatment options that patients may undergo with the option of surgical treatment.
