Moyamoya disease tends to be more progressive in children than in adults. In those patients who don't stabilize clinically, significant disability or death may occur.
The prognosis for VWD disease is generally fairly good and most individuals have a normal lifespan.

The cause of moyamoya disease is unknown. Possible explanations for the disorder include injuries to the brain, infection, multifactorial inheritance, genetic factors, or other causes
medical professionals involved in the care of patients with moyamoya disease generally include specialists in neurology, neurosurgery, neuroradiology, and anesthesiology.

The purpose of revascularization surgery in moyamoya disease is to augment or redirect blood flow in the brain. Surgical revascularization has been reported to improve cerebral blood flow
It is a disease of the arteries of the brain.... That requires surgery..... It is extremely rare.....
studies used to establish the diagnosis of moyamoya disease include cerebral angiography , magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) , magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and computed tomography (CT ) scan
Kennedy's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that is slow in its progression. It is likely that individuals will become wheelchair bound during the later stages of the disease
Diagnosis is the identification of a disease. Prognosis is a prediction about the course of the disease.
Prognosis Pro = prior or before Gnosis = knowledge
a prognosis is the result after treating the disease
