Mild cerebral infarction and cerebral atrophy are generally not serious, but if this manifestation occurs in young people, it is necessary to screen for related risk factors and carry out intervention and treatment in time.
Mild cerebral infarction generally refers to lacunar cerebral infarction, and mild cerebral infarction and cerebral atrophy is one of the common manifestations of cranial MRI in middle-aged and old-aged people, which is a degenerative change of the central nervous system that occurs with the growth of age, and may be associated with factors such as prolonged hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and smoking and alcohol consumption, in addition to age.
If the above imaging manifestations occur in elderly patients without obvious clinical symptoms, special treatment is not required, but attention should be paid to controlling risk factors such as blood pressure and blood glucose, as well as quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption.
If the above situation occurs in young people, it is necessary to further improve the relevant examination to clarify the causes of lacunar cerebral infarction and cerebral atrophy, and to carry out intervention and treatment as early as possible.
