Original Contributions Prognosis in Middle Cerebral Artery Stenosis
Among 21 patients with angiographically demonstrated stenosis of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) 14 presented with a stroke and 7 with transient ischaemic attacks (TIAs). Of the former 4 had further strokes (3 fatal); of the latter one had a fatal stroke. Only 2 of the 21 patients had TIAs during the follow-up period. The present study indicates that the prognosis for patients with MCA stenosi...
متن کاملPrognosis of asymptomatic stenosis of the middle cerebral artery.
BACKGROUND The risk of ischaemic events in asymptomatic intracranial atherosclerosis is unknown. OBJECTIVE To follow up patients with asymptomatic atherosclerotic middle cerebral artery stenosis (MCAS) to evaluate the long term stroke risk in its territory. METHODS Consecutive white patients with asymptomatic atherosclerotic MCAS were enrolled. Patients with MCAS of possible or proven non-a...
متن کاملPrognosis in middle cerebral artery occlusion.
The natural history of MCA occlusion has become increasingly important since the surgical option of EC/IC bypass surgery has been available. The clinical course of 24 patients with angiographically-demonstrated occlusion of the MCA artery was reviewed. Eight patients presented with a major disabling stroke and five of these died during the acute phase of this ischemic event. The remaining 19 pa...
متن کاملMultiple intracranial arterial stenosis influences the long-term prognosis of symptomatic middle cerebral artery occlusion
BACKGROUND Large intracranial occlusive vascular disease is a major contributor to the incidence of stroke worldwide, especially when it involves the middle cerebral artery (MCA). The data on the prognosis of symptomatic atherosclerotic MCA occlusions (MCAO) with concomitant intracranial arterial disease (MCAO-AIS) are limited. MCAO-AIS may reflect the extent of the atherosclerotic intracranial...
متن کاملDynamic autoregulation testing in patients with middle cerebral artery stenosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cross-spectral analysis (CSA) of spontaneous oscillations in cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) and arterial blood pressure is considered a sensitive and convenient method for dynamic autoregulation testing. So far, it has been unclear whether CSA can be used to assess stenoses of the intracranial arteries. METHODS This study for the first time applies CSA to 26 patien...
