Dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured - what does this mean

Dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured, is a condition in which the inner layers of the artery wall separate, causing the artery to become narrower and reducing blood flow to the brain. it can be caused by a traumatic injury, such as a blow to the head, or a medical condition, such as an aneurysm, arteriosclerosis, or fibromuscular dysplasia.

What happens during the disease - dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured

Dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured, is a condition in which the layers of the artery wall separate, allowing blood to flow between them. this can cause narrowing of the artery, which can lead to decreased blood flow to the brain and a decrease in the delivery of oxygen and nutrients. this can lead to ischemia, stroke, and other neurological symptoms, depending on the area of the brain affected.

Dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured - Prevention

The best way to prevent nonruptured dissections of cerebral arteries is to manage any underlying conditions that may contribute to the development of the condition, such as high blood pressure, as well as to avoid activities that may increase the risk of injury to the head or neck area. additionally, regular checkups with a medical professional can help to detect any signs of a developing dissection before it becomes a more serious problem.
