What is cerebrovascular disease

  Cerebrovascular disease is a disease in which there is a problem with the blood vessels supplying the brain tissue and the corresponding clinical symptoms result. The main cerebrovascular diseases include cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral artery malformation, hemangioma, developmental abnormalities, etc.  Cerebral infarction induced by cerebrovascular disease is one of the more common clinical diseases, accounting for about 80%. It is still quite serious, such as causing patients to have limb dysfunction, sensory impairment of the limbs, as well as speech impairment and mental retardation. Of course, cerebral hemorrhage, which is less common (20%), can also cause the above symptoms and can be life-threatening in severe cases, as it can induce brain herniation, affect the circulatory and respiratory centers, and lead to death. Cerebrovascular malformations, such as aneurysms, can lead to subarachnoid hemorrhage, which is also a critical condition and can lead to death in severe cases. Vascular malformations may also lead to cerebral hemorrhage, so cerebrovascular disease is a disease that deserves great attention.  Once cerebrovascular disease is detected, medical personnel should regularly check the changes of blood vessels and pay attention to the occurrence of complications of cerebrovascular disease; including the rehabilitation of the sequelae of cerebrovascular disease at a later stage, all need to be taken seriously.
