Four adult female patients with moyamoya vessels are described. Hypertension and hyperlipidaemia were discovered in three patients. Vessels similar to moyamoya vessels were seen in the orbital and cortical collateral vessels as well as in the basal ganglia region. Attention should now be paid to the aetiological rather than the descriptive aspects of the disorder. An empirical trial of corticosteroids is worth while. Risk factors such as hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, and smoking should be eliminated.
本文描述了4例患有烟雾状血管的成年女性患者。3例患者发现有高血压和高脂血症。在眼眶和皮质侧支血管以及基底节区可见到类似烟雾状血管的血管。现在应关注该疾病的病因学而非描述性方面。皮质类固醇的经验性试验是值得的。应消除高血压、高脂血症和吸烟等危险因素。
