“…These authors also reported an association between migraine and exertional angina, although a direct correlation with coronary artery disease was not identified 60. Consistent with these observations, an increased incidence of migraine was reported in several vascular disorders (eg, moyamoya disease,61 livedo reticularis,62 and preeclampsia63). An important role for immune factors and inflammation is also suggested in some diseases noted above by links between migraine and Sjögren’s syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, Raynaud’s phenomenon, and evidence of endothelium dysfunction and its effect on the brain microcirculation.…”

Migraine attacks with auras are sometimes associated with underlying hereditary or acquired cerebrovascular disorders. A unifying pathophysiological explanation linking migraine to these conditions has been diffcult to identify. On the basis of genetic and epidemiological evidence, we suggest that changes in blood vessels, hypoperfusion disorders, and microembolisation can cause neurovascular dysfunction and evoke cortical spreading depression, an event that is widely thought to underlie aura symptoms. In fact, recent experimental data have indicated that focal, mild, and transient ischaemia can trigger cortical spreading depression without an enduring tissue signature. Although migraine with aura has many causes (eg, neuronal network excitability), it seems that migraine and stroke might both be triggered by hypoperfusion and could therefore exist on a continuum of vascular complications in a subset of patients who have these hereditary or acquired comorbid vascular conditions.

“…Type of headache in pediatric moyamoya disease can often be categorized into migraine-like headache with or without an aura (1,19,24,30) and hemiplegic migraine (2). unclear whether their hypothesis can be adapted to pediatric moyamoya disease or not (27).…”

“…Headache is often associated with vomiting and spontaneously resolves within several hours (1,23,27,30,35). Migraine-like headache is also observed in some of adult patients with moyamoya disease (27,31,35). According to previous studies, persistent cerebral ischemia may be closely related to the occurrence of headache in pediatric moyamoya disease, because surgical revascularization may improve or resolve it (30).…”

“…MMD is sometimes associated with migraine and headache is described as tension-type and these cases often require noninvasive MR examination to detect asymptomatic MMD. 4,11 Transient ischemic attack (TIA), cerebral infarction or intracranial bleeding can occur in both the pediatric and adult forms of MMD. 9,10 Studies done in western countries showed that most patients were young woman unlike in Asia, where children were affected.…”

Moyamoya (meaning a hazy puff of smoke) disease (MMD) is a rare, idiopathic, persistent, occlusive cerebrovascular disease involving bilateral progressive stenosis or occlusion of a terminal portion of the internal carotid artery, or a proximal portion of the anterior cerebral arteries and the middle cerebral arteries. There are irregular perforating vascular networks (moyamoya vessels), seen in the base of the brain, which produce magnetic resonance images of this 'puff of smoke' condition. Although MMD is prevalent mostly in Japan, it is also occasionally seen outside Asia. We report an interesting case of bilateral optic nerve involvement of a radiologically diagnosed case of MMD in a young lady seen in the northeast part of India.
