Brain infarction, also known as cerebral infarction, is an acute ischemic cerebrovascular accident that may endanger the patient’s life if this disease is severe, especially in large cerebral infarcts. If the patient is suffering from a large cerebral infarction or even forming a brain hernia, emergency craniotomy is required; therefore, the patient has a prime recovery time of 3-6 months after the surgery. If the patient still wants to have other elective surgery, it is recommended to have elective surgery after six months. If the patient has a very small cerebral infarction, for example, a lacunar cerebral infarction, the condition will be completely stable in about 1-2 months and can be considered for elective surgery after 3 months, and there are usually no special surgical difficulties as well as risks.
