title: Middle cerebral artery occlusion with moyamoya-like vessels and aneurysms. A report of two cases.
abstract: We describe two cases of aneurysmal rupture in moyamoya-like vessels in middle cerebral artery occlusion. This phenomenon was previously described in severe steno-occlusive disease and accounts for the hemorrhagic presentation. To our knowledge, these are the second and third clinical cases published in modern neuroradiological literature.
