Progression of Brain Network Alterations in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We recently showed that cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is associated with functionally relevant brain network impairments, in particular affecting posterior white matter connections. Here we examined how these brain network impairments progress over time. METHODS Thirty-three patients with probable CAA underwent multimodal brain magnetic resonance imaging at 2 time p...

next most common clinical presentation of CAA after ICH. TFNEs were recurrent, stereotyped, brief (usually <30 min) but had a very wide clinical spectrum: although about half were positive (‘auralike’) spreading somatosensory or visual symptoms, the other half were predominantly negative symptoms, resembling ‘classic’ TIAs (e.g. hemiparesis or dysphasia), in keeping with the observations by Pat...

Brain of a 66 year old woman with a four year history of progressive dementia with episodes of encephalopathy. Opposite: Multiple small, cystic, and occasionally confluent cortical scars (arrows) were restricted to the cerebrum and were due to cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Histological examination of the cortex in the postmortem brain showed numerous neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles ...

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is increasingly recognized as a major cause of hemorrhagic stroke in the elderly as well as an important contributor to the growing challenge of vascular cognitive impairment, even in cerebral amyloid angiopathy patients without hemorrhagic stroke. Among the advances highlighted in this update are: (1) the importance of sulcal bleeding events in early recurrent hemor...
