A member asked:

I have a question on pseudo moya moya on the left side 4 years ago. patient has had both stent and bypass operations. can it repeat to the right side?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stents: Moya moya can occur on both sides and that is really based on he primary cause - with a history of stent placement and bypass surgery i would certainly closely monitor for possible development of the disorder on the opposite side.
