Can Lung Cancer Cause Brain Attacks

Cerebral infarction generally refers to cerebral infarction, and lung cancer may cause cerebral infarction, but it cannot be confirmed that all patients will cause cerebral infarction.
Lung cancer is a primary malignant tumor of lungs, and its cause is not yet clear, which may be caused by occupational exposure, air pollution, ionizing radiation, diet, heredity and other factors. Patients with lung cancer may have distant metastasis. If the cancer cells of a patient metastasize to the brain, it may stimulate the central nervous system and induce cerebral infarction. However, due to individual differences, lung cancer patients may not always suffer from cerebral infarction.
Once diagnosed with cerebral infarction, patients should be injected intravenously with neuroprotective drugs such as edaravone, cytarabine, etc. under the guidance of doctors. Or take craniotomy and decompression surgery, partial brain tissue resection, etc., so as to control the development of the disease and improve the prognosis.
If patients with lung cancer have suspected cerebral infarction, they should consult the doctor in time for relevant examination so as to find out the cause of the disease.
