Multiple and bilateral precerebral artery syndromes - what does this mean
Multiple and bilateral precerebral artery syndromes are caused by a narrowing or blockage of the blood vessels that supply blood to the brain, leading to a lack of oxygen and nutrients to the brain. this can lead to a variety of neurological symptoms, including confusion, memory problems, difficulty speaking, and difficulty walking.
What happens during the disease - multiple and bilateral precerebral artery syndromes
Multiple and bilateral precerebral artery syndromes is a rare vascular disorder caused by a narrowing of the precerebral arteries, which are the vessels that supply blood to the brain. this narrowing is caused by a buildup of plaque in the walls of the arteries, which can lead to decreased blood flow to the brain and a decrease in oxygen delivery. this can cause a variety of neurological symptoms, including headaches, dizziness, confusion, and difficulty with coordination and balance.
