Cerebral infarction due to unspecified occlusion or stenosis of precerebral arteries - what does this mean

Cerebral infarction due to unspecified occlusion or stenosis of precerebral arteries is a condition caused by a lack of blood supply to the brain due to a blockage or narrowing of the precerebral arteries. this blockage or narrowing can be caused by a buildup of plaque, a blood clot, or a narrowing of the artery itself. this lack of blood supply can cause damage to the brain, leading to a stroke.

What happens during the disease - cerebral infarction due to unspecified occlusion or stenosis of precerebral arteries

Cerebral infarction due to unspecified occlusion or stenosis of precerebral arteries is caused by a blockage in the precerebral arteries, which are responsible for supplying the brain with oxygen-rich blood. when the blockage occurs, the brain does not receive the necessary oxygen, leading to tissue death and ultimately the development of cerebral infarction.
