Summary: We herein describe two cases of moyamoya vasculopathy occurring in two men who used alkaloidal cocaine for years. One patient presented with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and one with infarction in both lobes. Particularly impressive was a significant degree of collateral development with lenticulostriate networks.
