  2. Cerebellar stroke syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellar_stroke_syndrome

    Cerebellar stroke syndrome is a condition in which the circulation to the cerebellum is impaired due to a lesion of the superior cerebellar artery, anterior inferior cerebellar artery or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. [1] Cardinal signs include vertigo, headache, vomiting, and ataxia. [2]

  3. Posterior cerebral artery syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cerebral_artery...

    Posterior cerebral artery syndrome is a condition whereby the blood supply from the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) is restricted, leading to a reduction of the function of the portions of the brain supplied by that vessel: the occipital lobe, the inferomedial temporal lobe, a large portion of the thalamus, and the upper brainstem and midbrain.

  4. Posterior inferior cerebellar artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_inferior...

    The posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) is the largest branch of the vertebral artery. It is one of the three main arteries that supply blood to the cerebellum, a part of the brain. Blockage of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery can result in a type of stroke called lateral medullary syndrome.

  5. Cortical blindness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortical_blindness

    Acquired cortical blindness is most often caused by loss of blood flow to the occipital cortex from either unilateral or bilateral posterior cerebral artery blockage (ischemic stroke) and by cardiac surgery. [2] In most cases, the complete loss of vision is not permanent and the patient may recover some of their vision (cortical visual ...

  6. Lateral medullary syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_medullary_syndrome

    Lateral medullary syndrome is a neurological disorder causing a range of symptoms due to ischemia in the lateral part of the medulla oblongata in the brainstem.The ischemia is a result of a blockage most commonly in the vertebral artery or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. [1]

  7. Vertebrobasilar insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebrobasilar_insufficiency

    Vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VBI) describes a temporary set of symptoms due to decreased blood flow in the posterior circulation of the brain.The posterior circulation supplies the medulla, pons, midbrain, cerebellum and (in 70-80% of people) supplies the posterior cerebellar artery to the thalamus and occipital cortex. [1]

  8. Watershed stroke - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watershed_stroke

    A watershed stroke is defined as a brain ischemia that is localized to the vulnerable border zones between the tissues supplied by the anterior, posterior and middle cerebral arteries. [ 1 ] The actual blood stream blockage/restriction site can be located far away from the infarcts.

  9. Posterior communicating artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_communicating_artery

    The brain is supplied with blood by the internal carotid arteries and also by the posterior cerebral arteries; the posterior communicating arteries connects the two systems. This provides redundancies or collaterals in the cerebral circulation so that, if one system is blocked or narrowed, the other can take over.
