Cerebral vascular supply diseases affect the blood vessels supplying the brain, leading to various health issues. Understanding these diseases, their causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatments is crucial for managing them effectively.

What are Cerebral Vascular Supply Diseases? Cerebral vascular supply diseases are conditions that affect the blood vessels supplying blood to the brain. These diseases can disrupt blood flow, leading to serious complications such as stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), and vascular dementia.

Types of Cerebral Vascular Supply Diseases:

  1. Ischemic Stroke: Caused by a blockage in the blood vessels supplying the brain.
  2. Hemorrhagic Stroke: Caused by bleeding in the brain due to a ruptured blood vessel.
  3. Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA): Often referred to as a “mini-stroke,” it is caused by a temporary disruption in blood flow to the brain.
  4. Cerebral Aneurysm: Weakness in a blood vessel wall that causes it to bulge and potentially rupture.
  5. Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): Abnormal tangle of blood vessels in the brain.

Causes of Cerebral Vascular Supply Diseases:

  1. Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
  2. Atherosclerosis (Buildup of plaque in the arteries)
  3. Diabetes
  4. Smoking
  5. High Cholesterol
