Abstract
The detailed clinical characteristics of unilateral moyamoya disease (MMD) have not been fully elucidated. It has been reported that some patients with unilateral MMD progress to bilateral involvement, while others remain with the unilateral variant In this series, we present a case of unilateral MMD that progressed to bilateral involvement over the course of just one month.
