Abstract

A three-year-old child affected by glycogen storage disease (GSD) type la presented with acute hemiplegia secondary to Moyamoya disease. So far, the association of moyamoya with GSD la had only been reported twice. The rarity of both conditions makes their association unlikely to be a chance event and an etiological relationship between them must be considered.

Key words

Moyamoya disease - Glycogen storage disease type Ia
