TIA and Headache in Pediatric Moyamoya Disease

  • First Online:
Moyamoya Disease: Current Knowledge and Future Perspectives

Abstract

This chapter precisely reviews the pathophysiology and clinical features of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and headache in pediatric moyamoya disease. Clinical features of TIA and headache are unique and almost specific for pediatric moyamoya disease. Therefore, the author strongly believes that the understanding of the mechanisms through which TIA and headache occur is quite important to know the moyamoya disease in depth and to perform appropriate surgical treatment for pediatric patients with moyamoya disease.
