To present our clinical experience in terms of disease presentation and choice of revascularisation procedure in our first group of 23 European Moyamoya angiopathy (disease and syndrome) patients. METHOD AND PATIENT SELECTION: Twenty three patients were diagnosed and treated from 1997-2001 in our neurosurgical department. All patients underwent preoperative angiography, colour Doppler examination, cranial MRI and/or CT scans, HMPAO-SPECT or H(2)(15)O PET (baseline and Diamox challenge) scans. Nineteen patients presented with child-juvenile Moyamoya angiopathy with an average age at presentation of 8 years (range 1-17 years), in 4 patients adult Moyamoya was diagnosed with a mean age at presentation of 34 years (range 23-40 years).
