Occlusion and stenosis of multiple and bilateral cerebral arteries - what does this mean

Occlusion and stenosis of multiple and bilateral cerebral arteries is a condition caused by a narrowing or blockage of the arteries that supply blood to the brain. this can be caused by a buildup of plaque or a blood clot, both of which can lead to a lack of oxygen and nutrients to the brain, which can lead to a stroke or other neurological issues.

What happens during the disease - occlusion and stenosis of multiple and bilateral cerebral arteries

Occlusion and stenosis of multiple and bilateral cerebral arteries is a condition that occurs when the arteries that supply blood to the brain become narrowed or blocked, resulting in reduced or completely blocked blood flow to the brain. this can be caused by a buildup of fatty deposits in the arteries (atherosclerosis), inflammation, or a blood clot. the resulting lack of oxygen-rich blood can cause a stroke, resulting in a variety of neurological symptoms.

  • CT Angiography
  • MRI Angiography
  • Doppler Ultrasound
  • Transcranial Doppler
  • Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA)

Treatment and Medical Assistance

Main Goal: Treat the occlusion and stenosis of multiple and bilateral cerebral arteries.
  • Administer medications to reduce blood pressure and improve blood flow to the brain.
  • Perform angioplasty to open the narrowed arteries.
  • Perform surgery to remove the blockage in the arteries.
  • Administer anticoagulant medications to prevent further clotting.
  • Monitor the patient's blood pressure and oxygen levels regularly.
  • Provide lifestyle advice to reduce risk factors for stroke.
  • Prescribe physical therapy to improve strength and balance.
  • Administer intravenous thrombolysis to dissolve existing clots.
  • Perform endovascular embolization to block the flow of blood to the affected area.
