title: Moyamoya disease and protein S deficiency: a case report.
abstract: A 2-year-old child who acutely developed hemiplegia and seizure was found to have moyamoya disease and heterozygous protein S deficiency. This case report should alert physicians to the possible coexistence of moyamoya disease and protein S deficiency, even in the case of typical moyamoya disease. The intimate relationship between the two require further study.
