Moyamoya disease is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular disease characterized by bilateral occlusion or stenosis of arteries around circle of Willis. We report a case of 18-year-old female presented with recurrent episodes of headache and vertigo. On cerebral angiography, the patient was diagnosed to have moyamoya disease. On further evaluation, thrombophilia profile showed increased homocysteine level. The patient was treated conservatively with cobalamin and aspirin and advised for revascularization. According to the literature, there are few case reports of moyamoya disease with thrombotic disorders. Hence, we are reporting this interesting and rare case.

✓ A retrospective analysis of 1171 consecutive percutaneous retrograde brachial and carotid cerebral angiograms was performed on 635 patients, 50.7% of whom were in the sixth decade or older. Symptoms and signs of cerebrovascular disease were the most frequently investigated and diagnosed, accounting for 46.7% of all the angiograms. Despite this relatively high-risk population, we have found direct percutaneous cerebral angiography to have a very low risk. The pros and cons of direct percutaneous versus transfemoral cerebral angiography are discussed. The literature of the previous 10 years is reviewed, and the complication rate of these two techniques is compared.

Background Cerebral angiography in a rabbit model is widely used in the field of interventional radiology. Conventionally, the femoral artery is used for cerebral angiography in radiology departments. However, angiographic studies require surgical cutdown of the femoral artery, which is technically difficult. Purpose To evaluate a new cerebral angiography technique involving a transauricular approach in a rabbit model. Material and Methods In each of 10 rabbits, central auricular arteries were punctured in the right or left ear with a 20-gauge i.v. catheter. A microcatheter (2.0 F) with a 0.016-inch guide wire was introduced through the i.v. catheter and advanced to the aortic arch. The microcatheter and guide wire were advanced selectively into cerebral arteries and angiography was performed. Results Central auricular arteries were successfully punctured with 20-gauge i.v. catheters. After approaching the aortic arch, microcatheter tips and guide wires were advanced manually to cerebral arteries on both sides. Difficulties in selecting the carotid arteries were resolved by using a looping technique within the cardiac chamber. Microcatheter loops within the cardiac chamber disappeared or remained during artery superselection. Conclusion Transauricular cerebral angiography appears to be a feasible technique for brain or carotid intervention studies in rabbits. In addition, vertebral angiography using a transauricular approach is possible using the looping technique. Selection of carotid or vertebral arteries on each side was not difficult when the microcatheter and guide wire were looped within the cardiac chamber. The ear chosen for the initial puncture does not appear to be important.

In the event of cerebrovascular disease, simple medical treatment is very difficult to have expected effect. Interventional therapy is a new type of diagnosis and treatment in cerebrovascular technology, with advantage of less trauma, safer, more curative effect, quicker recovery, and easier to accept. Neurology department in the hospital i belonging to had performed the Seldinger technique cerebral angiography (DSA) for 68 patients with intravascular interventional therapy from January 2013 to January 2014. Through the establishment of special preoperative and postoperative nursing dedicative team, implement the system of process type intensive care good results have been achieved.
