Multiple cerebral infarction

Cerebral arteriosclerosis affects blood supply to the brain due to cerebral arteriosclerosis, especially dementia syndrome caused by recurrent cerebrovascular accidents. The microemboli or ischemia of sclerotic plaques in the outer cerebral arteries (carotid arteries or cone-basal arteries) are caused by scattered small infarcts in the center of the white matter of the brain, which is called multiple infarct dementia. Multiple cerebral infarcts are more common in the elderly. The degree of cerebral arteriosclerosis can vary from site to site. The middle cerebral artery and basal artery are more sclerotic, and the wall of the anterior arterioles of the thin tubules of multiple cerebral infarction mental disorders is thickened, and the elastic fracture is more split. Basal ganglia can be seen with changes in capillary hyaline fibrosis and fibrosis. The brain has diffuse and localized atrophy, and the ventricles have enlarged. Microscopic examination revealed small infarcts of various sizes in the frontal lobe and white matter center. Glial cell proliferation around the softened foci formed small capsules or scars and epilepsy. . Nerve cell degeneration and glial cell proliferation are most obvious around blood vessels, and arteriosclerosis can also be seen in organs such as heart and kidney. Among them, retinal arteriosclerosis is more common.
