      The clinical consequences of stroke are best classified based upon the anatomical regions(s) of the brain affected. This is best understood by dividing the brain into: 1) the cerebral hemispheres, where all but the posterior hemispheres are supplied by the carotid or anterior circulation, left and right side, and 2)

      The occlusion of a cerebral artery causes decreased blood flow and ischaemia. If it lasts only few seconds or a minute, recovery is immediate and complete. Depending on the severity of the ischemia, infarction (cellular death) will occur within minutes, causing irreversible damage even after blood flow is restored.

Results: Of the 262 patients of the study group, 112 (42.8%) were females and 150 (57.2%) were males. The mean age was 67.5 ± 11.9 (range 34–91 years). The control

      Posttraumatic Cerebral Infarction Diagnosed by CT: Prevalence, Origin, and Outcome Posttraumatic cerebral infarction is a recognized complication of craniocerebral trauma, but its frequency, cause, and influence on mortality are not well defined. To ascertain this information, all cranial CT studies demonstrating posttraumatic cerebral

      Cerebral infarction is necrosis of brain tissue due to an interruption in the blood supply. In ICD-10-CM, the terms “stroke” and “cerebrovascular accident” (CVA) are also reported with the cerebral infarction codes. Although cerebral infarction is often thought of as a …

      cerebrovascular accident (CVA). It is also known as cerebral infarction or stroke. If the symptoms are temporary without permanent brain damage, the event is called a transient ischemic attack (TIA). Rupture of an artery with bleeding into the brain (hemorrhage) is called a CVA, too. Strokes and TIAs are rated based on the underlying cause.
