Thrombosis

One of the clinical manifestations of multiple cerebral infarction when a thrombus is expanded, multiple cerebral infarction refers to multiple ischemic softening infarcts in the brain. In addition to the common paralysis, sensory and language disorders, dementia can also occur. Doctors call this dementia multi-infarct dementia (arteriosclerotic dementia). Multiple cerebral infarctions occur predominantly in men aged 50 to 60 years, and hypertension and arteriosclerosis are the main causes. The more lesions in this disease, the higher the incidence of dementia, and bilateral infarction is more prone to dementia than unilateral. Therefore, the recurrence of cerebral infarction should be actively prevented.
