Abstract

Cerebral arteriopathies, including moyamoya (MM) may be part of a systemic arteriopathy. However, patients presenting to neurologists are not routinely evaluated for this. We report the yield of renal angiography in a group of children undergoing catheter cerebral angiography for evaluation of cerebrovascular disease.

Highlights

  • Cerebral arteriopathies, including moyamoya (MM) may be part of a systemic arteriopathy

  • Renovascular abnormalities were common in this group of children with cerebrovascular disease and predominantly neurological presentations

  • Neurologists should be alert to potential systemic involvement and its sequelae in children with cerebral arteriopathy
