Moyamoya Syndrome with contra lateral DACA aneurysm

Abstract

Moyamoya disease is a progressive steno-occlusive disease of bilateral internal carotid artery with the development of fine collateral vessels and is an angiographic diagnosis. Concurrent Moyamoya disease with intracranial aneurysm had been reported in literature by various authors. Moyamoya disease is reported with aneurysm at various locations including basilar tip, anterior choroidal artery, posterior choroidal artery, anterior cerebral artery and middle cerebral artery. After reviewing literature thoroughly there is not a single case report on Moyamoya disease with isolated distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm with the best of our knowledge. Here we are reporting a case of Moyamoya disease of left petrous and cavernous part of internal carotid artery with contralateral distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm in a 36-year-old male.
