Paroxysmal course of Nishimoto-Takeuchi-Kudo disease (my-my disease)

Abstract

My-my disease was described in 1966 as a clinical and radiological syndrome by Japanese authors. Life-time diagnosis of this disease is possible only with the help of angiographic examination, which reveals its main symptom - stenosis of the supra-sphenoid section of the internal carotid artery, often on both sides. As a rule, stenotic changes also extend to the first segments of the anterior and middle cerebral arteries. The distal branches of these arteries are not affected and allow collateral blood flow.
