Abstract

Moyamoya disease is a rare cerebral vasculopathy. Disease onset is mainly sudden presenting as an ischemic stroke but also sometimes as a brain hemorraghe. Cerebral angiography is the gold standard to confirm the diagnosis. Different therapeutic approaches have been described such as conservative management or endoscopic and surgical approaches. We report the case of a young patient who was diagnosed with a brain hemorraghe following a sudden loss of consciousness.

La maladie de moyamoya est une vasculopathie cérébrale souvent méconnue. Sa découverte est majoritairement brutale dans les suites de la survenue d’un accident vasculaire ischémique ou, dans certains cas, hémorragique. L’artériographie est l’examen de choix pour confirmer le diagnostic. Différentes approches thérapeutiques ont été proposées, qu’elles soient médicamenteuses, endoscopiques ou chirurgicales. Nous présentons le cas d’une jeune patiente chez qui un diagnostic de maladie de moyamoya a été posé dans le décours d’une hémorragie cérébrale avec altération rapide de l’état de conscience.

Keywords: Brain hemorraghe; Stroke; Moyamoya disease.
