  2. Middle cerebral artery syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_cerebral_artery...

    The MCA is the most common site for the occurrence of ischemic stroke. [1] Depending upon the location and severity of the occlusion, signs and symptoms may vary within the population affected with MCA syndrome. More distal blockages tend to produce milder deficits due to more extensive branching of the artery and less ischemic response.

  3. Anterior cerebral artery syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cerebral_artery...

    Anterior cerebral artery syndrome is a condition whereby the blood supply from the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is restricted, leading to a reduction of the function of the portions of the brain supplied by that vessel: the medial aspects of the frontal and parietal lobes, basal ganglia, anterior fornix and anterior corpus callosum.

  4. Watershed stroke - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watershed_stroke

    Watershed stroke symptoms are due to the reduced blood flow to all parts of the body, specifically the brain, thus leading to brain damage. Initial symptoms, as promoted by the American Stroke Association, are FAST, representing F = Facial weakness (droop), A = Arm weakness (drift), S = Speech difficulty (slur), and T = Time to act (priority of intervention).

  5. Anterior cerebral artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cerebral_artery

    The two anterior cerebral arteries arise from the internal carotid artery and are part of the circle of Willis. The left and right anterior cerebral arteries are connected by the anterior communicating artery. Anterior cerebral artery syndrome refers to symptoms that follow a stroke occurring in the area normally supplied by one of the arteries.

  6. Lacunar stroke - Wikipedia

    posterior limb of the internal capsule, basilar part of pons, and corona radiata, red nucleus, lentiform nucleus, superior cerebellar artery infarcts, anterior cerebral artery infarcts It displays a combination of cerebellar and motor symptoms, including weakness and clumsiness, on the ipsilateral side of the body.

  7. Cerebral infarction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_infarction

    Cerebral infarction, also known as an ischemic stroke, is the pathologic process that results in an area of necrotic tissue in the brain (cerebral infarct). [1] In mid to high income countries, a stroke is the main reason for disability among people and the 2nd cause of death. [ 2 ]

  8. Leptomeningeal collateral circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptomeningeal_collateral...

    The leptomeningeal collateral circulation (also known as leptomeningeal anastomoses or pial collaterals) is a network of small blood vessels in the brain that connects branches of the middle, anterior and posterior cerebral arteries (MCA, ACA, and PCA), [1] with variation in its precise anatomy between individuals. [2]

  9. Middle cerebral artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_cerebral_artery

    Areas supplied by the middle cerebral artery include: The bulk of the lateral surface of the hemisphere; except for the superior inch of the frontal and parietal lobe (anterior cerebral artery), and the inferior part of the temporal lobe. Superior division supplies lateroinferior frontal lobe (location of Broca's area i.e. language expression)
