Abstract excerpt
Moyamoya vasculopathy secondary to various genetic disorders is classified as moyamoya syndrome (MMS). Recent studies indicate MMS occurs due to a combination of genetic modifiers and causative mutations for the primary genetic disorders. We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) in 13 patients with various genetic disorders who developed MMS. WES successfully revealed the genetic diagnoses of neurofibromatosis...
