Abstract
|
|
|
|
Moyamoya disease is a rare, progressive, occlusive cerebrovascular disease with characteristic angiographic findings. Factors such as pregnancy and childbirth can increase the risk of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke associated with this disease. Additionally if hypertension develops during pregnancy, a thorough elucidation of its cause and strict monitoring and/or control may be necessary. Adrenal adenomas during pregnancy are very rare and their the diagnosis is much more difficult during pregnancy. We have described a case involving the delayed diagnosis of Moyamoya disease and adrenal adenoma in a woman with severe pre-eclampsia. If any abnormal neurologic sign is noted in woman with pre-eclampsia, the possibility that other cases of stroke exist should be considered.
