Cerebral infarction is a syndrome in which the blood supply to the brain is impaired due to various cerebrovascular lesions, causing neurological deficits, and its manifestation depends mainly on the location and size of the lesion.
Cerebral infarction, also known as ischemic stroke, refers to various cerebrovascular lesions caused by cerebral blood supply obstruction, which causes local ischemia and hypoxic necrosis of brain tissue, and corresponding neurological deficits.
The clinical manifestations of cerebral infarction often depend on the size and location of the infarct foci, collateral circulation and vascular variations. For example, occlusion of the middle cerebral artery can cause hemiparesis, hemianopsia and hemiplegia on the opposite side of the lesion. Patients are often conscious, and only when basilar artery thrombosis or large cerebral infarction occurs, consciousness disorder occurs, which is life-threatening.
If there is any discomfort, it is recommended to seek prompt medical attention for diagnosis and treatment.
