AB  - Progressive  disease  that  affects  the  cerebrovascular  circulation.  Characterized  by  narrowing  and/or  complete  obstruction  of  the  carotids.  Clinically,  may  cause  paralysis.  Headaches,  various  vision  problems,  mental  retardation,  and  psychiatric  problems  may  occur.  Cerebral  hemorrhage  (subarachnoid),  cerebral  infarction,  severe  headaches,  speech  disorders,  and  sudden  onset  of  recurrent  paralysis  are  part  of  the  presentation  but  most  often  occur  in  juvenile  moyamoya  patients.  Children  may  have  convulsions  or  involuntary  movements.  Hemianopia,  diplopia,  bilateral  decreased  visual  acuity,  and  inability  to  recognize  objects  are  clinical  symptoms.
