Abstract:
:An embryological association between moyamoya disease (MMD) and cardiac manifestations has been proposed. Data up to this point remains anecdotal, and the prevalence of cardiac manifestations in a western MMD population is uncertain. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of cardiac manifestations including coronary artery disease (CAD) and congenital cardiac defects in a mostly Caucasian population of MMD patients and review prior reports of such cases. Medical records of MMD patients who presented to our institution between 1990 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed for the presence of various congenital cardiac malformations and concomitant CAD. The prevalence of congenital cardiac defects and CAD was determined. A literature search for prior cases of MMD with concomitant cardiac manifestations was performed. A total of 181 MMD patients were included in our analysis, 139 (76.8%) of whom were Caucasian. Ten patients had cardiac manifestations (5.5%). There were six total MMD patients with congenital cardiac defects (3.3%). All patients with congenital defects were diagnosed in childhood. The prevalence of congenital defects in MMD was slightly higher than the general population as reported previously (0.8-1.2%). Four MMD patients had CAD (2.2%). The mean age of patients with CAD was 41.0 years (SD = 12.3, range = 33-59) in our series and 33.1 years (SD = 15.0) in a review of prior reports. These mean ages of CAD are in contrast to the 7th and 8th decades of lifein the general population as indicated by prior studies. Our findings support an association between MMD and cardiac manifestations. Further investigation is warranted in order to further characterize this potential relationship and shed light on a possible cardio-cephalic neural crest syndrome.
