Abstract
Moyamoya disease is a rare disorder characterized by progressive occlusive cerebral arteriopathy associated with an extensive network of collateral vessels. Renovascular hypertension has rarely been associated with this disease. We report on a girl with renovascular hypertension and 2 renal artery aneurysms who was found to have moyamoya disease. Successful surgical treatment was achieved with extracorporeal arterial repair and renal autotransplantation. The relationship between moyamoya disease and renovascular hypertension is reviewed.
