Abstract: Fibromuscular dysplasia is a noninflammatory, nonatherosclerotic, segmental,multifocal disease of the arteries, mainly involving the medium-sized arteries. Being animportant risk factor of stroke in youth, it may lead to arterial stenosis, occlusion, aneurysm or dissection. The origin of the disease is still unknown. The diagnosis relies on angiography, by which characteristic "string-of-beads" pattern may be found. Serious cases may be treated withsurgical or interventional therapy.

Key words: Fibromuscular dysplasia; Cerebrovascular disease
