Abstract: Moyamoya disease is a chronic, progressive occlusion of the circle of Willis arteries that leads to the development of characteristic collateral vessels evidence by imaging, particularly cerebral angiography [1]. The disorder initially involves the intracranial portion of the internal carotid arteries and progresses to involve the middle, anterior and posterior cerebral arteries. Collateral vascular network developed due to compensatory dilatation of lenticulostriate and thalamostriate arteries. Angiographic study of these collateral vascular network give rise to characteristics appearance such as a pu of cigarette smoke. e Japanese term “MOYAMOYA†means “some thing hazy like a pu of cigarette smok [2,3].
