Abstract excerpt
Intracranial major artery stenosis/occlusion (ICASO) is the major cause of ischemic stroke. Recent studies have suggested that variants of RNF213, a susceptibility gene for moyamoya disease (MMD), are also related to non-MMD ICASO. Regarding the predominant involvement of steno-occlusion on anterior circulation in MMD, we hypothesized that the ICASO distribution pattern (anterior/posterior) in non-MMD may differ...
