Abstract：
OBJECTIVE:Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are occasionally associated with moyamoya disease (MMD). The purpose of this study was to elucidate differences between patients with MMD with and without IAs and differences between patients with IAs at different locations. METHODS:Between May 2012 and December 2017, consecutive patients with MMD were enrolled in a retrospective single-center study. IAs were classified as circle of Willis (CoW) or peripheral aneurysms according to the anatomic location. Clinical characteristics and hemodynamic parameters were collected and analyzed. A hemispheric analysis was performed for Suzuki stage and computed tomography perfusion parameters. RESULTS:The study included 31 patients with MMD with IAs and 279 patients with MMD without IAs. The patients with IAs had more severe neurological dysfunction, more advanced Suzuki stage, and less hemodynamic dysfunction than the patients without IAs (P < 0.05). Of patients with MMD with IAs, 17 had CoW aneurysms, and 13 had peripheral aneurysms. Patients with CoW aneurysms were older and had more advanced Suzuki stage than patients with peripheral aneurysms (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Patients with MMD with IAs had different clinical and hemodynamic features compared with patients with MMD without IAs. CoW aneurysms and peripheral aneurysms may occur at different stages of MMD, which may explain their differences in anatomical location, type of hemorrhage, and treatment strategy.
