Familial Occipital Calcifications, hemorrhagic Strokes, Leukoencephalopathy, Dementia, and External Carotid Dysplasia
Neurol 55:1661-1667, Iglesias,S.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
These clinical, neuroradiologic, and histologic features suggest a new familial cerebrovascular entity with widespread microvascular calcifications and autosomal (presumably dominant) inheritance. We suggest the acronym FOCHS-LADD, for fami lial occipital calcifications, hemorrhagic strokes, leukoencephalopathy, arterial dysplasia, and dementia.
