Objective: We report a case in which transient cerebral vasospasm after carotid artery stenting (CAS) was effectively treated using arterial and intravenous infusion of fasudil hydrochloride, but cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) developed during subsequent treatment.Case Presentation: The patient was a 79-year-old man who underwent right CAS to treat symptomatic right carotid artery stenosis. After the procedure, the patient developed left paresis and unilateral spatial neglect. The following day, he developed diffuse cerebral vasospasm in the right middle cerebral artery that improved immediately upon arterial infusion of fasudil hydrochloride. Intravenous infusion of fasudil hydrochloride was then started, but CHS with epileptic seizures developed after 1 day of treatment. After 23 days of medical treatment, the condition of the patient improved to mild hemiparesis.Conclusion: The present case suggests that transient cerebral vasospasm after CAS may turn into CHS during treatment and that continuous monitoring for cerebral perfusion is important.

Recently, thyroid autoantibodies were found to be associated with moyamoya disease (MMD). The ring finger protein 213 (RNF213) p.R4810K variant represents the most important susceptibility genotype of this disease, but its relationship with thyroid autoantibodies remains to be elucidated. Thus, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical relevance of thyroid autoantibodies in each RNF213 genotype in patients with MMD. Included in this study were patients with MMD without a thyroid disease history and in euthyroid status; they were then classified into the mutated or nonmutated based on the RNF213 p.R4810K genotype and positive or negative based on thyroid autoantibody (thyroperoxidase and thyroglobulin) levels. Clinical data of each group were thereafter evaluated. Among the 209 patients, the mutated RNF213 p.R4810K variant and positive thyroid autoantibodies were detected in 155 and 41 patients, respectively. Positive thyroid autoantibodies were found to be more common in the nonmutated patients than in the mutated patients (31.5% vs. 15.5%; P = 0.011). In the mutated patients, as compared to autoantibody-negative patients, autoantibody-positive patients were determined to be more likely to have advanced disease with posterior cerebral artery involvement (54.2% vs. 29.0%; P = 0.017), white matter infarction (58.3% vs. 37.6%; P = 0.046), and a higher modified Rankin Scale at last visit (16.7% vs. 3.1%; P = 0.021). These results suggest that thyroid autoantibodies can act as an immunity inducer in patients with MMD lacking the susceptibility gene RNF213 p.R4810K variant. Moreover, the simultaneous presence of thyroid autoantibodies and the variant seems to aggravate the disease, which indicates synergy between thyroid autoantibodies and the variant.
